Lost Year

A Survival Story of the Ukrainian Famine
From the author of Nowhere Boy - called “a resistance novel for our times” by The New York Times - comes a brilliant survival story that traces a harrowing family secret back to Soviet Ukraine in the 1930s.
Thirteen-year-old Matthew is miserable. His journalist dad is stuck overseas, and his mum has moved his great-grandmother in with them to ride out the pandemic, adding to his stress and isolation.But when Matthew finds a photo in his great-grandmother’s belongings, he discovers a clue to a hidden chapter of her past, one that will reveal 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 light on the Holodomor - the horrific famine that killed millions of Ukrainians.
