Critics Review

A nuanced account…[Ira’s] tale of restlessness looks acutely at the clash of family ties with love of freedom. The memoir is worthwhile as much for its Amish insights as for its exploration of one man’s emotional turmoil, regret, and shame.” –Publishers Weekly on Growing Up AmishIn this wonderful sequel to Growing up Amish, Wagler repairs the broken roads-the endless rifts with his father and others.With audacious candor, Wagler reveals the darkest crevice of his heart, the sensitive soul of his people, the yearning of the human spirit. He fearlessly tells the unfettered truth. Raw truth about love, empathy, sin, salvation and reconciliation. His honesty refreshes. His brilliance informs. His courage offers hope.–Donald B. Kraybill, author The Riddle of Amish Culture
