The Wall

““There was nothing and nobody that I could hate for this. I knew I would never understand, and I didn’t want to understand, either. I was afraid. I’m still afraid, because I know that I can live only if I fail to understand certain things.””

“This book is part of my psyche forever. Written as a retrospective diary by an unnamed middle-aged woman isolated in the Austrian Alps by a mysterious, impassable transparent barrier. Themes of freedom and self-reliance AKA the world has to end for a woman to truly feel free.”
