This July, Holocaust Museum Houston librarian Maria Harris facilitates a discussion of “Between Shades of Gray” by Ruta Sepetys. This novel, based on the author's family, is set in 1941. Fifteen-year-old Lina, her mother and brother are pulled from their Lithuanian home by Soviet guards and sent to Siberia, where her father is sentenced to death in a prison camp. Lina fights for her life, vowing to honor her family and the thousands like hers by burying her story in a jar on Lithuanian soil.
