"A heart-wrenching memoir ... brilliantly illuminates a family struggling valiantly to beat impossible odds." New York Times
Harry Bernstein was born into a world of hardship and suffering in a northern mill town as the First World War loomed.
His brutish father spends what little he earns at the tailoring shop on drink, while his devoted mother survives on her dreams - that new shoes might secure Harry's admission to a fancy school, that her daughter might marry well, and that one day they might all escape this grinding poverty for the paradise of America.
But as the years go by, life for the Bernsteins on their narrow cobbled street remains a daily struggle to make ends meet. For young Harry though, most upsetting are his fears for his adored elder sister Lily, who is risking all by pursuing a forbidden love...
"A fascinating, poignant story ... which leaves one with a sense of hope" William Woodruff, author of The Road to Nab End
"The Invisible Wall is a superb story. A delightful, fascinating read which held me spell-bound throughout" Billy Hopkins, author of Our Kid
