Can a splintered Amish family reconcile? More than anything else, thirty-something Holly Fisher longs for family. Growing up in Seattle without a dad or grandparents, she wonders what it would be like to have a heritage, a place of belonging. Holly is furious when her mother, Esther, reveals a long-kept secret: Holly’s grandmother and uncles are still alive and begging Esther to return. And Holly is shocked when she learns that the family she’s never known lives on a Lancaster, Pennsylvania, farm—as part of an Amish community her mother once abandoned.
Guilt-ridden Esther, terrified to see her mother and siblings, begs Holly to accompany her on a visit to Esther’s mother before she dies. But can their journey to a conflicting world heal their emotional wounds and finally bring them home?
Set in the heart of contemporary Lancaster County, Leaving Lancaster explores the power of forgiveness, family reconciliation, and love where least expected.

Kate Lloyd is a novelist, a mother of two sons, and a passionate observer of human relationships. A native of Baltimore, Kate spends time with family and friends in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, the inspiration for Leaving Lancaster. She is also a member of the Lancaster County Historical Society. Kate and her husband, Noel, live in the Pacific Northwest, the setting for Kate's first novel, A Portrait of Marguerite. Kate studied painting and sculpture in college and has worked a variety of jobs, including car salesman and restaurateur. Find out more about Kate on Facebook or at www.katelloyd.net.

4,0 su 5 stelle Sometimes hard to read because of the male arrogance, but worth it.

As one other reviewer said it is about a mother and daughter. The mother, Esther left her Amish home, with her Amish boyfriend, Samuel (before they were baptized). They marry and have a daughter, Holly, but then the husband is killed in Vietnam. The daughter grows up not knowing anything about her parent's history. Holly is in her early 40s. The story begins when after opening a letter from her mother, Esther decides to return to her Amish family home along with her daughter.

Part of the way in I had to put it aside because my own background made it hard for me to read about the way Esther was treated when she arrived home. Her arrogant little brother is a pastor which means he has the authority to make decisions for his community and he is head of the family. I guess making him such a self-righteous jerk allows the reader to see how some of the community see Esther.

Side by side with her new relationship with the Amish community, is conflict between Esther and Holly. Holly is so immature that it is hard to believe she is an adult.

I came back to the book a couple of days later and the story started to move away from the negative and towards more positive interactions. There is still a contrast between the people who welcome Esther and those who reject her, but acceptance become more prevalent. The kind and mature Bishop is a nice contrast to the more negative personality of some other characters.

The book is made up of so many complicated relationships that it is amazing how easy it is to follow all of these relationships. These relationships are what really make the book special.

The decisions that Esther and Holly make about how they will live the rest of their lives is very satisfying. The resolution of Holly and Esther's relationship problems is less satisfying.

The writing flows smoothly. The relationships, emotions and events are described clearly. It is so noticeable when a book is confusing, but we don't notice when it is well written.
