Description

A novella set in the House of David religious colony, Eden Springs is a tale of mystery and scandal. In 1903, Benjamin Purnell founded the colony with five followers, creating a heaven on earth amidst lush orchards and vineyards. The sprawling complex, a major tourist attraction, was home to a thousand followers who lived by strict rules, including abstaining from meat and sex. However, accounts of life within the colony suggest a more relaxed atmosphere than initially meets the eye. As the story unfolds, a growing scandal threatens to upend the colony's idyllic facade. Told through newspaper clippings, legal documents, and personal accounts, this novella offers a unique glimpse into the inner workings of Eden Springs. Set against the backdrop of the House of David, Laura Kasischke's novella is a gripping tale of secrets, lies, and rebellion.
