Can justice be healing? Can crime victims find a new peace through transformative processes that include victims, offenders and community in creative solutions that enable all to grow? We can ""turn irritation into iridescence,"" find ways to take the hard blows of life, and use the very power of our pain to grow from the experience, and create new hope beyond crime or other trauma.Forgiveness is an untapped force in our revenge-oriented culture. These stories show that forgiveness is not condoning or forgetting, or failing to set limits. Forgiveness is recognizing and acknowledging all that was wrong, but refusing to be destroyed by it, and refusing to be drawn into a cycle of hatred and bitterness.We can change our criminal justice system to include transformative methods. We can change our world to one with greater social and economic justice. For readers who yearn for realistic hope in these troubled times, this is a must read.

Ruth Morris’s new book focuses on Mary Elizabeth Braddon’s novels from 1880 to her death in 1915 and how the portrayal of Jewish characters and Jewish culture shifts throughout this timeframe. By tracing the fortunes of Anglo-Jewry through Braddon’s fiction into the twentieth century, it draws contextually on significant world events such as the Boer War, the beginning of the Zionist movement and the events leading up to the First World War. Each of these events is seen through a Jewish lens in the sense of how they affected Jews in Britain. Morris also discusses them through non-Jewish eyes because Braddon was not Jewish herself and was writing for a predominantly non-Jewish audience. Through a careful reading of the novels, these seemingly incidental references provide a rich narrative of how the Anglo-Jewish community was viewed during a particularly dynamic time in its history.
