The Shunning

The Shunning "The Shunning tears heads off cliches, making us see a whole place freshly. It is a complete world, reeling and tilting but enduring” – Books in Canada Peter is trying to live a good life, a faithful life. When he begins to question the doctrine of his Mennonite church and his faith in general, he is ostracized from the community. A decree by the church forces his wife Helen to abandon him if not in person, then in spirit. The strain of domestic and community pressures forces Peter deeper into isolation, but he still refuses to stop questioning. Manitoba playwright Patrick Friesen weaves a tangled web between faith and the faithful.
