Castaway Books with Eva Seyler

Season three Episode eight 

In this week’s episode I chat with Eva Seyler, author of The War in our Hearts about growing up in the Mennonite Church community and the challenges of leaving that environment to adapt to ordinary life. A fascinating insight from this talented author and artist. We also meet one of Eva’s five cats. 

The books Eva chose: 

Winnie the Pooh by A A Milne

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

 Song of the Silent Harp by B J Hoff

 Rose Under Fire by Elizabeth Wein

Note from Eva: I love all of E Wein’s books, but this one will always be special to me. I’ve written blog posts about it, how I relate to Rose and Róża both https://www.evaseyler.com/index.php/2021/05/08/on-v-e-day-lilacs-and-being-a-hot-mess/)
