In this deeply hopeful and viscerally detailed novel, award-winning Haitian author Louis-Philippe Dalembert (The Other Side of the Sea) has provided a Tolstoyan narrative of the contemporary immigrants' exodus from war, famine, poverty, criminality and injustice to a better life across the Mediterranean Sea. Following in intimate detail the lives of three women from disparate religions and cultures, and nations--Nigeria, Eritrea, and Syria--Dalembert compassionately depicts these three women and the bond they form together in their mutual struggle to escape to Europe via an overcrowded, dilapidated boat across the sea, the metaphorical wall between their former lives and the future. Certain to appeal to readers of literature of migration and such recent fiction as "Behold the Dreamers" and "The Lost Children Archive." No library descriptions found. |

Each of the three women chronicles her journey to Libya and on to Italy. Their stories are connected by a common thread of motivating desperation, fear, arbitrary violence, and hope. The tone of the book is much like a documentary, and Dalembert does not shy away from showing the harsh reality of the lawlessness and danger the women faced. The Mediterranean Wall is not an easy book, but it is a book that bears witness to historic tragedy and the migrant’s quest for a better life. ( )
