In February, Lois Hammersberg Lowry’s newest book, The Windeby Puzzle, was published by HarperCollins. She writes: “It is an anthropological mystery of sorts, set in the first century and written when I was in quarantine and was able to spend my time on research. I also spent my pandemic time talking by Zoom to classrooms around the world: Turkey, Romania, Kathmandu, Iran, Korea, Brazil, Japan….so many others. And it was heartening to find that wherever they are, whatever their culture and language, teenagers care about, worry about— and yearn to fix—the same things in this troubled world.”
