From the author of ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE, a collection of
stories about memory: the source of meaning and coherence in our
lives, the fragile thread that connects us to ourselves and to
others. In the luminous title story, a young boy in South Africa
comes to possess an old woman's secret, a piece of the past with
the power to redeem a life. In 'The River Nemunas', a teenaged
orphan moves from Kansas to Lithuania, and discovers a world in
which myth becomes real. And in 'Afterworld,' a woman who escaped
the Holocaust is haunted by visions of her childhood friends in
Germany, yet finds solace in the tender ministrations of her
grandson. The stories in Memory Wall show us how we figure the
world, and show Anthony Doerr to be a master of the form.
