Last night Mary-Ann Kirkby made her much anticipated (previously postponed) visit to our library. A good crowd was on hand to hear to talk about her childhood and read from her book I am Hutterite.
If you haven't read this book, I highly recommend it. It's available in most bookstores across Canada (if not sold out).
Growing up in Western Canada, Hutterites are a part of my daily landscape but I didn't know much about them. Mary-Ann's book gives a vivid picture of this wonderful culture that makes up part of our cultural richness.
As a bonus-- I got a mug from Polka Dot Press, the publishing company that puts out the book.
