While vacationing in a hunting lodge in the Austrian mountains, a middle-aged woman awakens one morning to find herself separated from the rest of the world by an invisible wall. With a cat, a dog, and a cow as her sole companions, she learns how to survive and cope with her loneliness. Allegorical yet deeply personal and absorbing, The Wall is at once a critique of modern civilization, a nuanced and loving portrait of a relationship between a woman and her animals, a thrilling survival story, a Cold War-era dystopian adventure, and a truly singular feminist classic.Book specifications:Dimensions: 201 x 132Author: Marlen HaushoferCover type: PaperbackPublishing Year: 2022Publishing Month: 6Pages: 248Language: EnglishPublisher: New Directions Publishing CorporationWeight: 259 g
