Forgiveness usually gets a very good press in our culture: we are
deluged with self-help books and television shows all delivering
the same message, that forgiveness is good for everyone, and is
always the right thing to do. But those who have suffered seriously
at the hands of others often and rightly feel that this boosterism
about forgiveness is glib and facile. Perhaps forgiveness is not
always desirable, especially where the wrongdoing is terrible or
the wrongdoer unrepentant. In this book, Garrard and McNaughton
suggest that the whole debate suffers from a crippling lack of
clarity about what forgiveness really amounts to. They argue that
it is more difficult, complex and troubling than many of its
advocates suppose. Nevertheless, they conclude, a proper
understanding of forgiveness allows us to avoid cheap and shallow
forms of it, and enables us to see why it is right and admirable to
forgive even unrepentant wrongdoers.
