This is a beautiful book – beautiful in its tenderness, humanity, observations, and writing. It offers Bill Hayes’ reflections on his relationship with the inimitable Oliver Sacks and his relationship with New York City. If you read one book this year, read this seminal work of non-fiction. -

the book of forgiving
Desmond & Mpho Tutu
Archbishop Desmond Tutu and his daughter Rev. Mpho Tutu have joined forces to write this practical guide to forgiveness. Drawing from lessons learnt during The Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and from personal tragedy, they have devised a fourfold pathway to forgiveness applicable in many scenarios. Underpinning the book is the impact forgiveness (both requesting and granting it) can have on an individual and the wider community. -
