Love Marriage

In this globe-scattered Sri Lankan family, we speak of only two kinds of marriage. The first is the Arranged Marriage. The second is the Love Marriage. In reality, there is a whole spectrum in between, but most of us spend years running away from the first toward the second. [p. 3]The daughter of Sri Lankan immigrants who left their collapsing country and married in America, Yalini finds herself caught between the traditions of her ancestors and the lure of her own modern world. But when she is summoned to Toronto to help care for her dying uncle, Kumaran, a former member of the militant Tamil Tigers, Yalini is forced to see that violence is not a relic of the Sri Lankan past, but very much a part of her Western present.While Kumaran’s loved ones gather around him to say goodbye, Yalini traces her family’s roots–and the conflicts facing them as ethnic Tamils–through a series of marriages. Now, as Kumaran’s death and his daughter’s...

A Place Called Eden

Rebecca Yonder and Jacob Swenson live in the same county but their lives could not be more different. Rebecca is the only daughter of a conservative Mennonite farm family. Jacob is the only son of a wealthy non-Mennonite whose family has farmed their acres of land for over a century. The two should have never met and certainly never fallen in love, but a chance encounter in the Yonder family's Eden General Store changes all of that. Jacob quickly realizes that he is in the presence of a beautiful and intelligent young woman, in spite of her conservative Mennonite dress and cap. Rebecca sees Jacob as a handsome young man, 'of the world' and completely outside of her own culture and tradition. Silently, without words, and despite their apparent cultural and religious differences, they vow to see each other again. As their romance grows deeper and they grow closer, Jacob and Rebecca's differences continue trying to tear them apart. Rebecca's father refuses to allow her to even see...
