My Scandalous Mennonite Diary by Kelvin Bueckert

Work. Obey rules. Get married. Raise children to do the same. Is this all there is to life? What about love? Am I worthy of it? These are the questions that Mary Elias, a young woman in a traditional Mennonite household, asked herself. Who else could she talk to? No one cared about her. She was alone and hopeless... until one day when a young man arrived at her door. But, was he the answer? A story of love and doubt, of faith and tradition. My Scandalous Mennonite Diary is a short, yet meaningful read.
