Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Robert Ashcom is a master of sewing magic and emotion into the English language.
His newest novel, WINTER RUN, invites readers to walk through rural Virginia in the 1940s. The story is set around Charlie, a curious, adventuresome boy (think Huck Finn) and his family, friends, animals and farm. It is with these aspects of life - family, friends and duty - that the proud young boy becomes a strong but sensitive man.
Now, most critics may associate 'rural' with boring, but not so in WINTER RUN. What audiences must pay attention to, in my opinion, is Ashcom's verbal sorcery.
He snaps photographs with words and tells fireside stories with narrative; his work commands the attention of anyone with serious interest in American literature.
