Paperback. Zustand: Good. "A powerfully moving debut . . . Ukraine?s tragic history painfully echoes its current crisis, and on every page the Ukrainian spirit shines out, unbowed, unbent and unbroken.? Kate Quinn, author of The Diamond EyeIn the 1930s, Stalin?s activists marched through the Soviet Union, espousing the greatness of collective farming. It was the first step in creating a man-made famine that, in Ukraine, stole almost 4 million lives. Inspired by the history the world forgot, and the Russian government denies, Erin Litteken reimagines their story.In 1929, Katya is 16 years old, surrounded by family and in love with the boy next door. When Stalin?s activists arrive in her village, it?s just a few, a little pressure to join the collective. But soon neighbors disappear, those who speak out are never seen again and every new day is uncertain.Resistance has a price, and as desperate hunger grips the countryside, survival seems more a dream than a possibility. But, even in the darkest times, love beckons.Seventy years later, a young widow discovers her grandmother?s journal, one that will reveal the long-buried secrets of her family?s haunted past.This is a story of the resilience of the human spirit, the love that sees us through our darkest hours and the true horror of what happened during the Holodomor.May we never forget, lest history repeat itself.Winner of the She Reads Best Historical Fiction of 2022 AwardWinner of the Women's Fiction Writers Association Star Award"A compelling and intimate story of love and survival.

A remarkable read not to be missed." Lisa Wingate, author of *Before We Were Yours ** "This beautifully written snapshot of Ukraine?s history is both timely and heart-rending, sensitively bringing to life the culture of a nation devastated by an enemy invader. How shocking it is that it?s a history that?s being repeated today. And how important a reminder that where there?s life, there?s hope." Fiona Valpy, author of The Dressmaker?s Gift** ** ?Emotionally riveting and honest . . . simultaneously shines an unflinching light on historical atrocities while it celebrates the resilience of the human spirit. You won?t soon forget this stunning debut.?
