I read this book on the recommendation of a friend who grew up in Manitoba and had been speaking with me about the intergenerational trauma of Mennonite people. I was not well versed in the migrations of the Mennonite and the traumas association with these migrations. I was unaware of Mennonite in Mexico.

This book provided an interesting glimpse into that world. It explored, in mostly unstated ways, aspects of intergenerational trauma. The book is complicated and moving and well worth the read.
