Lina is just like any
other fifteen-year-old Lithuanian girl in 1941. She paints, she draws,
she gets crushes on boys. Until one night when Soviet officers barge
into her home, tearing her family from the comfortable life they've
known. Separated from her father, forced onto a crowded and dirty train
car, Lina, her mother, and her young brother slowly make their way
north, crossing the Arctic Circle, to a work camp in the coldest reaches
of Siberia.
Here they are forced, under Stalin's orders, to dig for
beets and fight for their lives under the cruelest of conditions.
Lina finds solace in her art, meticulously--and at great
risk--documenting events by drawing, hoping these messages will make
their way to her father's prison camp to let him know they are still
alive. It is a long and harrowing journey, spanning years and covering
6,500 miles, but it is through incredible strength, love, and hope that
Lina ultimately survives. Between Shades of Gray is a novel that will steal your breath and capture your heart.
