HTML:<p><b>*A National Book Award Finalist*<br /></b><br /> <b>From the author of <i>Nowhere Boy -</i> called "a resistance novel for our times" by <i>The New York Times -</i> comes a brilliant middle-grade survival story that traces a harrowing family secret back to the Holodomor, a terrible famine that devastated Soviet Ukraine in the 1930s.<br /></b>Thirteen-year-old Matthew is miserable. His journalist dad is stuck overseas indefinitely, and his mom has moved in his one-hundred-year-old great-grandmother to ride out the pandemic, adding to his stress and isolation.<br /> But when Matthew finds a tattered black-and-white photo in his great-grandmother's belongings, he discovers a clue to a hidden chapter of her past, one that will lead to a life-shattering family secret. Set in alternating timelines that connect the present-day to the 1930s and the US to the USSR, Katherine Marsh's latest novel sheds fresh light on the Holodomor – the horrific famine that killed millions of Ukrainians, and which the Soviet government covered up for decades.<br /> An incredibly timely, page-turning story of family, survival, and sacrifice, inspired by Marsh's own family history, <i>The Lost Year</i> is perfect for fans of Ruta Sepetys' <i>Between Shades of Gray</i> and Alan Gratz's <i>Refugee.</i></p>.
