Summary: "A Tale of the Kloster: A Romance of the German Mystics of the Cocalico" by Brother Jabez is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores the lives of German mystics who established a religious community at Ephrata in Pennsylvania during the 18th century. The narrative follows Johann Peter Müller, a reformed minister who joins this semi-monastic community, as he navigates his personal faith journey, forming deep connections with the other members, including an orphaned child he adopts. The opening of the novel introduces the character of Johann Peter Müller, who recounts his early life in the Palatinate and his journey to America. He describes his initial reluctance to join the Ephrata community due to societal prejudice yet is compelled by what he feels is divine guidance. As he embraces a life of solitude and spirituality, he discovers a child, whom he names Sonnlein, abandoned in the woods. The narrative captures Müller's internal struggles, the contrasting lifestyles of hermits and society, and his eventual commitment to the Kloster, setting the stage for themes of faith, community, and personal transformation that will unfold throughout the story.
