The Wall by Marlen Haushofer

3.0

So the first half of this was surprisingly easy to read and engaging. It’s written kind of like a diary/report ie. no dialogue just the main character describing what’s going on in her life. About halfway though the narrative became repetitive, by virtue of the plot of course it would be, but it became boring to read about the grass needing to be cut down, another cat dying etc etc and I kind of rushed through the last quarter. I will say though the last few pages were sad.
