Separate From The World

Ohio Amish Mystery Series - #6

BY P. L. GAUS

Brief Description:
"Separate from the World" is a story of a rift between two Amish factions, one favors the use of medicine and participates in a college study of genetic traits particular to the Amish community, and the other rejects any outside influence. Once more, Gaus takes us inside a separate culture and, in a manner both gentle & grim, highlights the complex relationship of the Amish and the "English" as they live inside or outside each other's orbits. "Gaus is a sensitive storyteller who matches his cadences to the measured pace of Amish life, catching the tensions among the village's religious factions." The New York Times
