For even though the wall is ostensibly culled from the levison archive, it is a novel. Its substance is history, but its details are invented. It transmits the record of vast tragic events into a great work of the imagination. On the surface the wall is the story of the systematic piecemeal extermination of the Jews of the defenseless men and women against the full brute force of the Germans. But the real story is the growth in spirit of a group of friends, so that they emerge undismayed and triumphant in the face of physical annihilation, and much, much more. This book has illustrations.
