A Palestinian prisoner’s memoir of thirty years’ captivity, and a
love letter to the wall that encircles and comforts him This is the
story of a wall that somehow chose me as the witness of what it
said and didNasser Abu Srour grew up in a refugee camp in the West
Bank, on the outskirts of Bethlehem. As a child, he played in its
shadow and explored the little world within the camp. As he grew
older, he began questioning the boundaries that limited his
existence.Later, sentenced to life in prison, with no hope of
parole, he found himself surrounded by a physical wall. This is the
story of how, over thirty years in captivity, he crafted a new
definition of freedom. Turning to writings by philosophers as
varied as Derrida, Kirkegaard and Freud, he begins to let go of
freedom as a question that demanded an answer, in order to preserve
it as a dream.The wall becomes his stable point of reference, his
anchor, both physically and psychologically. As each year brings
with it new waves of releases of prisoners, he dares to hope, and
seeks refuge in the wall when these hopes are dashed. And, in a
small miracle, he finds love with a lawyer from the outside – while
in her absence, the wall is his solace and his curse.A testimony of
how the most difficult of circumstances can build a person up
instead of tearing them down, The Tale of a Wall is an
extraordinary record of the vast confinement and power of the mind.

Niekedy máme v živote jednoducho smolu. Niekedy sa dostaneme do

môžeme sami.
