This vivid account of the Wall and all that it meant reminds us that symbolism can be doubleedged, as a potent emblem of isolation and repression became, in its destruction, an even more powerful totem of freedom. The Atlantic MonthlyNOW WITH AN UPDATED EPILOGUE 30 YEARS AFTER THE FALL OF THE WALLOn the morning of August 13, 1961, the residents of East Berlin found themselves cut off from family, friends, and jobs in the West by a tangle of barbed wire that ruthlessly split a city of four million in two. Within days the barbedwire entanglement would undergo an extraordinary metamorphosis: it became an imposing 103milelong wall guarded by three hundred watchtowers. A physical manifestation of the struggle between Soviet Communism and American capitalism that stood for nearly thirty years, the Berlin Wall was the highrisk fault line between East and West on which rested the fate of all humanity.In the definitive history on the subject, Frederick Taylor weaves together official history, archival materials, and personal accounts to tell the complete story of the Wall's rise and fall.
