The Forgotten People: A year among the Hutterites
$29.99
Michael Holzach
Michael Holzach retreated from the stressful bustle of the 20th century and had thrust himself into the serene but incongruous world of the Hutterites, a communal society dating back over 400 years. But what he found there was far from comforting.
What began as a simple experiment in "fly-on-the-wall" journalism soon became complicated by Holzach's struggle fully to know, fully to enter the Hutterite mind and heart.
The result is a book of extraordinary power, documenting not only the amazing history of a courageous and dedicated people, but also the sojourn of a person confronting his beliefs, his longings and his fears.
