Nomi Nickel lives with her father, Ray, in East Village, a small Mennonite town in Manitoba. She dreams of escaping to the big city, but since her mother and sister left home, it's hard to imagine leaving her father behind. As she begins to piece together the story behind her mother's disappearance, she finds herself on a direct collision course with the town's minister. With fierce originality and brilliance, Miriam Toews takes us straight to the centre of Nomi's world and the complicated kindness at the heart of family life.

Review:
"'Toews' novel is a wonderfully acute, moving, warm, sceptical, frustrated portrait of fundamentalist religion.' Guardian; 'Toews deserves to be up there with other top-notch writers - Margaret Atwood, Rohinton Mistry, Yann Martel - who have come out of Canada over the past few years.' Scotland on Sunday"
