The Tome Raiders will discuss The Wall by Marlon Haushofer.

While vacationing in the mountains, a middle-aged woman suddenly finds herself separated from the rest of the world by an invisible wall. With a cat, a dog, and a cow as her sole companions, she learns how to survive and cope with her loneliness. A critique of modern civilization, a loving portrait of a relationship between a woman and her animals, and a thrilling survival story.
