Book Review: Pain Pumpernickel and Profound Forgiveness

Pain, Pumpernickel, & Profound Forgiveness is a beautiful memoir written by Rosanne D'Ausilio. Through the use of short essays, Rosanne helps us understand her relationship with her father - and her mother - the good and the not-so-good.

As I read, I often felt that Rosanne learned the lessons of the book - love doesn't always look like we think it will, we can change how we see things, compassion is possible even when hurting, and you can be at peace with your past - as she wrote down her memories. Her surprise at what she found was evident!

Rosanne's tales are full of what she calls Divine Interventions - times where logic doesn't adequately explain the outcomes and miracles abound. And through these Divine Interventions, Rosanne learns so much about her father, herself, and their often-troubled relationship.

As someone who has struggled with familial relationships, I enjoyed watching the author discover that there is more than one way to see the past - and how you think about the past is entirely up to you! This is a quick, easy read that will leave you thinking deeply.
