Book description
Wall to Wall is the extraordinary account of a woman’s odyssey from the Wall of China to the Berlin Wall through the half-forgotten, isolated societies that lie between East and West. Morris’s journey across two continents is a remarkably vivid voyage of self-discovery, and her visit to her family’s ancestral home in the Ukraine is invested with powerful, haunting images and meaning from the stories her grandmother used to tell her of pre-Revolution Russia.
Both a detailed travelogue and a moving journey of the spirit, Wall to Wall effortlessly delights the reader with Mary Morris’s intensely personal style of narrative, and takes us on a breathtaking tour of the changes taking place from China to Germany.
