- Synopsis
- Shortlisted for the 2020 Orwell Prize "Thrilling…A topical and deftly satirical novel." —Anna Mundow, Wall Street JournalIn this taut, dystopian tale, an island nation ravaged by the Change has built an enormous concrete barrier around its coastline—the Wall. Joseph Kavanagh, a new Defender, has one task: to protect his section of the Wall from the Others, the desperate souls trapped amid the rising seas outside. A blend of the most compelling issues of our time—climate change, increasing fear, widening divisions—The Wall is a suspenseful story of love, trust, and survival.
