520    This novel of a boyhood in 1940s Virginia offers "a 
       graceful, compassionate ode to farm life in a bygone era" 
       ( Publishers Weekly ).     Charlie Lewis is the only child
       of metropolitan parents who, after World War II ends, 
       decide to move to the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains and
       live on a "gentleman's farm" near Charlottesville. Just 
       six years old when his family settles in to their new life,
       Charlie discovers his personal version of heaven.    
       Charlie has a natural—almost supernatural—affinity for the
       land and its animals. His encounters with an ancient, half
       -blind mule, a boar hog and his harem, a mother fox, and 
       four domestic dogs gone wild educate and intrigue him—and 
       lead him to contemplate the mysteries of their Maker. 
       Wanting to learn all he can, he instinctively turns to a 
       group of older black men, some of whom work the farm, 
       others who are neighbors. Jim Crow laws are still very 
       much evident, but Charlie's passions endear him to these 
       men, who understand that he is lonely even if he does not.
       They watch out for him, and more—they love him.    
       Capturing the innocence and wonder of childhood , Winter 
       Run  is "a very sweet, almost mystical tale of a boy who 
       was amazed by what nature brought him, his growing up, and
       his understanding that all things, even life as he knows 
       it, are passing" ( Booklist ).
