This book impressed me. 200+ pages (no chapter breaks) of a woman surviving on her own after a strange calamity. About 30 pages in, I wasn't sure I'd finish it, but soon after I couldn't put it down.

A blurb from Dorris Lessing on the back:

"The Wall is a wonderful novel. It is not often that you can say only a woman could have written this book, but women in particular will understand the heroine's loving devotion to the details of making and keeping life, every day felt as a victory against everything that would like to determine and destroy. It is as absorbing as Robinson Crusoe."
