Finally, an Amish Author: A Book Discussion of Banished, by Linda Byler
Manage episode 305037991 series 2844582
This week, we discuss Banished, by Linda Byler, the first Amish fiction author we've read that is an actual member of an Old Order Amish community. The book begins in the early 1910s, and following the lives of Oba and May after their parents pass away and they are adopted by relatives in an Amish community in Arkansas. We discuss how this book handles dark themes like abuse and racism, and the differences we see in this book by Byler versus non-Amish authors.
Content warning: This episode includes conversations about race and racism, as well as child abuse.

Our intro music is played by Erin, and the outro by Miriam Augsburger. Both are "arrangements" of the Doxology from the Mennonite Hymnal.
