Sinopsis

What if the Mennonite life young Marian Longenecker chafed against offered the chance for a new beginning?áWhat if her two Lancaster County homes with three generations of family were the perfect launch pad for aábrighter future? Readers who long for a simpler life can smell the aroma of saffron-infused potpie in Grandma&rsquo,sákitchen, hear the strains of four-part a capella music at church, and see the miracle of a divine healing.Follow the author in pigtails as a child and later with a prayer cap, bucking a heavy-handed father and challengingáchurch rules. Feel the terror of being locked behind a cellar door. Observe the horror of feeling defenselessábefore a conclave of bishops, an event propelling her into a different world.Fans of coming-of-age stories will delight in one woman&rsquo,s surprising path toward self-discovery, a self that lets herárevel in shiny red shoes.
