Fourth Book in the apocalyptic epic series, "Dominion". A year of unmitigated seclusion for the members of the Mystic Kingâs band has come to an end, as Ãön Razón, the musical coterie for the emerging age, steps back onto center stage. Nathaniel Freeman-Page, the bandâs composing aficionado, has discovered everything he ever dreamed of, though in the rare opportune moments of quiet and solitude, tormenting visions of Jesse cause him to question the cost of his newfound life of indulgence. With Siro Scribner and his associate and lover Sister Sawlus leading the informational charge, the progressively conflict-free world ponders the question: Has the belief in a personal deity been the cause of all of mankind's struggles? Could The Way of Mystic Realism indeed be the final requiem of religion and its god as we know it?

For decades, the field of Mennonite literature has been dominated by the question of Mennonite identity. After Identity interrogates this prolonged preoccupation and explores the potential to move beyond it to a truly post-identity Mennonite literature. The twelve essays collected here view Mennonite writing as transitioning beyond a tradition concerned primarily with defining itself and its cultural milieu. What this means for the future of Mennonite literature and its attendant criticism is the question at the heart of this volume. Contributors explore the histories and contexts—as well as the gaps—that have informed and diverted the perennial focus on identity in Mennonite literature, even as that identity is reread, reframed, and expanded. After Identity is a timely reappraisal of the Mennonite literature of Canada and the United States at the very moment when that literature seems ready to progress into a new era. In addition to the editor, the contributors are Ervin Beck, Di Brandt, Daniel Shank Cruz, Jeff Gundy, Ann Hostetler, Julia Spicher Kasdorf, Royden Loewen, Jesse Nathan, Magdalene Redekop, Hildi Froese Tiessen, and Paul Tiessen.
