In the book I Am Hutterite, Mary Ann Kirkby shares with us a glimpse of the reclusive and extraordinary Hutterite colony near Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. Hutterites are a communal branch of Anabaptists who trace their roots to the Radical Reformation of the 16th century. A memoir, I Am Hutterite chronicles Mary Ann Kirkby's own true story of the life on the Hutterite colony, adapting to popular culture, and her family's deep sense of loss for their community. It is also a story about retracing steps and understanding how ones beginnings often define them.
People who are into history and who are interested in reading autobiographies will find this book fascinating.
