| SC WAL | Waltner-Toews, David, 1948- One foot in heaven. Regina : Coteau Books, 2006, c2005. This collection of loosely linked short stories captures the multigenerational experience of a rural Mennonite immigrant community in Alberta. Prom Koslowski, a widower farmer and lay pastor, remembers fleeing persecution and settling in the promised land. His kids are tired of all that Canadian Mennonite stuff, suffering and escape and glory. But they have the immigrant bug, too--if things don't work, you find a new country--and they wander off to India and Indonesia searching for home. Both wry and touching, some of the best stories blend body and spirit, as in an account of a teen's baptism in which the hero muses not only about his religious rite of passage but also about his obsession with a sexy girl's breasts. Beyond immigration, even in the Mennonite nursing home, the drama is generated from the tension between cultural roots and the desire to wander somewhere else. |
