The Wallcreeper -Nell Zink
A short review by Pamela Priske, Morrab Library and book selection committee member-
The Wallcreeper is a novel about bird-watching, adultery, drugs, philosophy, conservation and rivers.
Nell is a fifty year old American writer who lives in Berlin and has a wry sense of humour.
My favourite part of the book is liberating the River Elbe.
