    Book Description In this stunning coming-of-age novel, award-winner Miriam Toews balances grief and hope in the voice of a witty, beleaguered teenager whose family is shattered by fundamentalist Christianity "Half of our family, the better-looking half, is missing," Nomi Nickel tells us at the beginning of A Complicated Kindness. Left alone with her sad, peculiar father, her days are spent piecing together why her mother and sister have disappeared and contemplating her inevitable career at Happy Family Farms, a chicken slaughterhouse on the outskirts of East Village. Not the East Village in New York City where Nomi would prefer to live, but an oppressive town founded by Mennonites on the cold, flat plains of Manitoba, Canada. This darkly funny novel is the world according to the unforgettable Nomi, a bewildered and wry sixteen-year-old trapped in a town governed by fundamentalist religion and in the shattered remains of a family it destroyed. In Nomi's droll, refreshing voice, we're told the story of an eccentric, loving family that falls apart as each member lands on a collision course with the only community any of them have ever known. A work of fierce humor and tragedy by a writer who has taken the American market by storm, this searing, tender, comic testament to family love will break your heart.

There was something very raw and personal in those letters, and that comes across in her novels as well. In those letters, she writes to the father of her 13-year-old son all about what the boy is up to. I was thinking of those letters a lot while reading this, mainly because the teenage boy in The Flying Troutmans reminds me very much of her son (at least the one I know from those letters).
    What I like best about Toews is the tone of her novels. She reminds me of Nick Hornby, not in subject matter, but in how both seem to be masters of the first person narrative. In Toews' case, she captures perfectly the sort of confused melancholy in which we all occasionally live our lives. Her narrators usually don't know what they are doing, which is nice to read, because I don't usually know what I'm doing either.
    For some reason, I don't really like summarizing fiction here. It's partly because I enjoy not knowing anything about a book before reading it. I know that most of you aren't like that, but, on the oft chance that you are, I don't want to ruin the book by revealing some intricate plot detail. This isn't the type of novel to use lots of plot devices, so I will say that the book is about a road trip a 28-year-old aunt takes her nephew and niece on while their mother is in a psychiatric ward. It's a very strange, but always interesting, family. (The last name of the family is Troutman, which is the reason for the odd title).

    Road Trip, First Day
    I woke up before the kids and noticed that Thebes had left a small silver notebook by the bed. Logan had covered himself up completely with his blanket. I couldn’t see him but I could hear him snoring softly, humming, like a little airplane lost in the clouds.
    Owen Unplugged
    His hair is red and shaggy and longish, and he’s pale and slim and six feet tall. Music is everything to him, which makes sense because he’s fifteen. I was twenty-two when he was born. I’d never had brothers or any other close male relatives and I’d always dreamed of having a brother or a son. The idea of it was strange and exotic, and when he was born, it was as if I had given birth to a llama or something. ...
    This summer we went to L.A. (Los Angeles) and while we were there, Liam insisted that we go to Venice Beach: specifically to the Venice Beach basketball courts. They’re famous, he told us; movies are shot there, some of the Lakers play there once in a while, we have to go there. We’d be fools not to go there. We can’t not go there. Plus, he said, Jonathan Richman sings about Venice Beach. This summer he started loving the music of Jonathan Richman.
