"If anyone wants to read a REALLY good book about what it is sort of
like living in a 'simple' community, I would highly recommend Miriam
Toews' "A Complicated Kindness" which I read this past Saturday morning.
It is laugh-out-loud funny -- something which I did dozens of time as I
read."

I would also recommend 'The Salvation of Yasch Siemens' by Armin Wiebe.
It is a very funny look at 'simple' life in southern Manitoba.  However,
it may be too Canadian for some.
