East of the Wall

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £1.33
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

A teenage girl and her father walk over the mountains out of Ukraine and end up in Nazi Germany. A teenage boy is sentenced to seventeen years of hard labour in Soviet concentration camps. The brilliant career of a MIG jet fighter pilot crashes to the ground. Diamond prospectors in Yakutia turn bankers in Belarus. Dancing in winter in the Kiev underground. Trading peanuts for a Masters degree in Market Economics. Smuggling books across communist Slovakia. Ivan, the one left behind when all the rest of his family went west. These are the subjects of eight short stories by Australian born Marko Bojcun, collected during his travels to Ukraine and neighbouring countries during and after the Cold War. The stories weave together the lives of ordinary people living in extraordinary times and Bojcun's own quest to reconnect with his ancestral homeland.
