The first book-length treatment of the flowering of American Mennonite writing of the last two decades, this book combines careful scholarship with Jeff Gundy's frank, sometimes sardonic, often funny, deeply engaged commentary on Mennonite writing and culture. Walker in the Fog explores important Mennonite and related authors-Patrick Friesen, William Stafford, Julia Kasdorf, Jean Janzen, Keith Ratzlaff, and others-as well as crucial issues and themes, such as power and authority, myths of origin and possibility, heresy and community.
