Books like Die Wand by Marlen Haushofer


Die Geschichte folgt einer Frau, die plötzlich als einzige Überlebende in einem exakt umrissenen Naturstück gefangen ist. Mit einem verwandelten Hund, einer Katze und einer trächtigen Kuh erkundet sie die ungezähmte Umgebung und beginnt, ihr Leben – das bisher in der Stadt verwoben war – neu zu ordnen. Durch das Notieren ihrer Erfahrungen auf den Rückseiten alter Kalender arbeitet sie sich langsam von Einsamkeit zur Selbstakzeptanz und zur Erkenntnis, dass die Konventionen, die sie einst einhielt, im Angesicht des Verlustes keine Bedeutung mehr haben. Das Gespenst vergangener Lügen und die Schwere des Alleinseins werden dabei zu Motiv, ihre eigene Identität zu formen und sich einer neuen Freiheit zu stellen.
