Booksology I’m a sucker for the author feature and Miriam Two is one of my favorites. The novelist is probably best known for her women, but now she’s back to non-fiction. A ceasefire that is not peaceful This is a memoir that delves into her relationship with her younger sister, who died of suicide in 2010. Toews visited these ideas and themes with all my andy sadness in her novel, but this is the first time she has conveyed a true version of the event. Toews grew up as a Canadian Mennonite, but it wasn’t a closed colony, but still, Toews felt isolated from the world. Her father died of suicide when he was young, and when his sister died, all of that history was refreshing.
