In Blush, Probyn argues that shame can be good for us, a powerful resource in rethinking who we are, and who we want to be. The blush is the physical manifestation of shame, and connects us with our humanity. What shames us says a great deal about our character as individuals and as a society, about our past and our desires for the future.
