Notes

General Note
"Originally published in German as 'Die Wand' by Claasen-Verlag GmbH, Düsseldorf" -- Title page verso.
Description
"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." -- Provided by publisher.
Language
Translated from the German.
