For Fukuyama, the past few centuries have witnessed the “democratization of dignity.” In previous, megalothymiatic societies, dignity was enjoyed only by an “elite few,” but now there is a rising belief in “isothymia”—that everyone is “just as good” as everyone else. Drawing on other Hegelian philosophers of recognition, like Charles Taylor, Fukuyama charts the major revolutions in the United States and France through to the Civil Rights movement, to show how dignity moved from belonging to the few to belonging to the many until, in the present day, “each marginalized group had a choice of seeing itself in broader or narrower identity terms. It could demand that society treat its members identically to the way that the dominant groups in society were treated, or it could assert a separate identity for its members and demand respect for them as different from mainstream society.” Democratic societies became characterized by multiculturalism and growing pluralism. Morgan Albright has been uprooted her entire life as an Army brat, but now outside of Baltimore, she works two jobs and has a roommate to own her own home. Morgan and Nina have become very close and are more than just roommates, they feel like sisters. When they decide to have a dinner party at their home, Morgan does not realize the charming man she has met at the bar she works at is not an IT executive but a conman and killer, who targets a particular type of woman. Morgan finally settled down after a life on the move, her father was on the military. She has a tight plan of what she wants to achieve. She bought her house, pays off mortgage and works two jobs.

He attends a small event at her hose with friends. All is good.

Summary of Finding Your Best Identity

I'm also a big fan of how the author brings her main characters together. The couple enjoyed a slow burn over months, which was so well done, and gave the story and their relationship so much more depth and meaning. Loved them together. This plot is addicting! Identity is unique and highly detailed, plus she ties in plenty of surprises that completely had me captivated.

The narration by January LaVoy is outstanding, bringing the characters and their emotions to life. LaVoy's voice modulation and portrayal of different characters are impeccable, immersing me in the story and adding an extra layer of authenticity to the audiobook experience. Her nuanced performance perfectly captures the essence of the characters, enhancing the overall enjoyment of the story.

As the letters continue and the couple show close intimacy but also a weary underlying anxiety about the other's identity, Chantal's acute observations of a moved shawl in her bedroom and specific details from the letters lead her to the conclusion that Jean-Marc is the secret correspondent. The book is centred on an inherent contradiction within our need for self-worth, for which Fukuyama uses the Greek thymos. We crave to be seen as both equal and superior to others. While the modern era, through democracy and international law, has brought about universal dignity for individuals, this achievement is a poisoned chalice. Luke is already wanted by the FBI. If losing her best friend was not enough, Luke also steals Morgans’s identity. She is on the brink of losing everything.
