“Gaus is a sensitive storyteller who matches his cadences to the measured pace of Amish life, catching the tensions among the village’s
religious factions.”

New York Times
"Gaus captures the steady cadence of Amish
life and offers a vivid depiction of both the
world they live in and their particular vision of human experience."

Christian Science Monitor
“Precise, detailed descriptions of Amish
practices and full-bodied, unhurried,
well-measured prose.
A pleasure to read.”
