One of the first books I read with a gay central character. Its melancholy story, set in the south, spoke to me as no book ever had. I still revisit it from time to time, recalling that feeling of connection, understanding that helped shape me into the person I am today.

Hobbinol I felt the same way about this book. I'm happy I got a chance to tell him in person how much his work meant to me when he was part of a panel on banned books at a library conference. I loved Winter Birds too. 8y
