Recenzii

"So much respect in these voices. And yearning. And generosity. And love." -- David Bergen, author of The Time in Between and Stranger
"These intricate, moving tales of daughters and their fathers offer essential story-telling and perceptive reflections on family, faith, and gender relations. They also become a kind of oral history -- often lyrical, sometimes melancholy -- of Mennonites in the last half century." -- Jeff Gundy, author of Songs from an Empty Cage: Poetry, Mystery, Anabaptism, and Peace
"Finding Father deftly assembles thirteen beautifully crafted reflections on fathers by their variously accomplished daughters. While each story is unique, the collection as a whole explores the powerful and complex effects on a daughter of being acknowledged, understood, encouraged, and loved by her father." -- Kathleen Venema, author of Bird-Bent Grass: A Memoir, in Pieces
"In stories encompassing history, gender and religion, daughters hold their fathers' silences, sorrows and legacies." -- Connie T. Braun, author of Silentium: And Other Reflections On Memory, Sorrow, Place, and the Sacred
