West of the Wall

  • West of the Wall
Le Pitch
Présentation de l'éditeur An act of desperation divides a mother and her child. Only an act of faith can reunite them. Trudy Hulst has no idea if her husband survived his attempted escape past the newly constructed Berlin Wall, but she knows too well the consequences of his actions. Now branded the wife of a defector, she faces a life in prison. With no real choice, she is forced to follow, praying she can find a way to claim their child once she's in West Berlin. Surviving her harrowing break for freedom, Trudy learns the terrible truth about her husband. Left to wander the wall like a ghost, she lives for brief glimpses of her son, stranded behind barbed wire and surrounded by armed soldiers. And Trudy knows she will do anything to get him back. Revue de presse '...Incredibly evocative, devastatingly moving depiction of a family torn apart by brick, politics and fear.' --Daily Record 'Heart-rending tale of family, love and supreme courage and their abilities to conquer the worst and most hopeless of circumstances.' --People's Friend 'A tragic tale that will stay with you long after you've finished it. 5 stars.' --Cosmopolitan on The Butterfly House Biographie de l'auteur Marcia Preston grew up on a wheat farm in central Oklahoma. From her father, she learned the art of storytelling; from her mother, a reverence for books; and from Oklahoma's red earth, a love of wildlife and the outdoors. Marcia earned degrees from University of Central Oklahoma, taught in public high schools for more than a decade, and worked for a time as PR and publications director. She also oversees the farm where she grew up, which was homesteaded by her grandparents. She lives with her childhood sweetheart and first husband (it's the same guy) beside a creek in central Oklahoma, where she gardens and dodges tornadoes. Afficher moinsAfficher plus
