Holly Payne's internationally acclaimed award winning novel, Kingdom of Simplicity, invites readers a chance to experience the healing power of forgiveness. How do you forgive? Eli Yoder, a misguided Amish youth, leaves home during rumspringa, the time of 'running around' for Amish youth before they accept their faith, and searches for acceptance from the Outside World. Here a surprising friendship teaches Eli how to laugh gain and prepares him to confront the biggest questions of his life.
Inspired by a true story of forgiveness and written in simple, striking prose, Holly Payne paints a detailed portrait of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania—its countryside, its markets, and the inner-workings of its homes, giving the reader an authentic perspective on the Amish that's rare in literature. Winner of a Marin Arts Council Grant for Fiction, First Place Winner of a Benjamin Franklin Award, and nominated for a national book award in Belgium, where it was named to the mandatory high school reading list in Ghent.
