Synopsis
Harold Kushner's book is for anyone who has experienced guilt, anger, depression, and disappointment because they have measured themselves against standards that are impossibly high. With generosity and wisdom, Kushner shows why people are not meant to be perfect, and why we need not fear the loss of God's love when we make mistakes. He reveals how acceptance and forgiveness can change our relationships with the most important people in our lives--and help us to meet the challenge of being human.

Industry reviews
"Harold Kushner's new book speaks softly but clearly to a world insanely moralistic and judgmental. If there were a quick fix for our troubled globe, it would be the profoundly tolerant message, teeming with humanity, at the heart of this book."
Advertisement - Thomas Moore 

"There is great healing in Harold Kushner's storytelling. He brings new clarity to our acceptance of human imperfections, our belief in our wholeness, the power of love and forgiveness, and our faith that God is always present, loving us totally and unconditionally."
Publisher's Catalog - Gerald G. Jampolsky 

"If there were a quick fix for our troubled globe, it would be the profoundly tolerant message, teeming with humanity, at the heart of this book."
Publisher's Catalog - Thomas Moore 

"Use it to heal yourself....Amid the psychological tyranny of our gotta-have-it lives, Kushner gives us a tool box to fix our broken souls."
Mount 

"Kushner again strikes deep emotional chords....His authoritative and caring voice, as sensitive as it is wise, is as familiar and comfortable as that of an old family friend."
Mount
