From the Cover Americans tend to watch news stories about religious cults in
disbelief, wondering about the people who squirrel themselves away
on a remote mountaintop or in a South American jungle. Michael
Klein's harrowing story of life in the Nation of Yahweh cult
shatters that illusion of distance: the two years he spent as a
child at the notorious "Temple of Love" were lived in New York.
Brought to the Temple by his mother when he was eleven, the accounts
of the abuse and racism he suffered there are hard to stomach.
Even after his daring escape, his memories and lingering fear
haunted his adolescence and early adulthood, even destroying his
marriage. But while Sectarian Song is a story of a lost
childhood, it is more importantly a story of hope, faith, and
healing, as one man comes to terms with his painful past so that he
may fully embrace the future. |

About the Book For two years, until he left at the age of
thirteen, Klein suffered abuse at the hands of the zealot cult
members, targeted for being a child of mixed race. Even after
he escaped, Klein suffered a psychological toll, bouncing between
foster homes and psychiatrists, spending years of his life looking
over his shoulder, haunted by fear. Despite its grim, often violent
early passages, Klein’s tale becomes one of hope and faith, an
uplifting lesson in the power of the human spirit. Visit Author's Website |
