Condition: Sehr gut. 318 S. Widmungsexemplar. Von der Autorin signiert. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - This is Hellen Battle's personal account of her harrowing ordeal in an East German prison. Young, attractive, impulsive, this sheltered and idealistic girl from Tennessee naively attempted to tackle the great wall that divides Berlin. She did what many an American would be tempted to do: she offered to help a young man escape from the East to the West, to his American fiancée - and freedom. Arrested for that innocent gesture of goodwill, she was forced to endure long months of brutal interrogation, prison indignities, false accusations. She was tried, found guilty of escape help and sentenced to four years hard labor in the penitentiary in Bautzen. Alone, defenseless, probably the only American woman to be held in an East German prison, Hellen Battle, in her drab, yellow-striped uniform, made a journey in self-discovery. You will share her anguish and struggle in the depths of suicidal despair, the bleak loneliness of solitary confinement. You will listen to remarkable dialogue with her dedicated Marxist warden; share in hours of amazing conversation with her fellow German prisoners. And you will shout Freiheit with her as she finally steps across the border, a free woman. A free woman who discovered that the real walls of this world are erected by people - within themselves, between men, dividing nations - and that love alone has the strength and tenacity to break through the barriers. - I hope she lived to see the "Mauer" fall.
