August, The Month Of Winds Vladislav Krapivin Publication date 1975 Publisher Progress Publishers Vladislav Krapivin's August, the Month of Winds is a story of childhood, friendship, courage and adventure. Set against the excitement of summer days, kite-flying and youthful imagination, it follows a group of boys whose lives are shaped by loyalty, honesty and concern for one another. Among them are Vladik, a blind boy determined to live independently and fulfil his dreams; Gena, whose devotion to his friend enables him to overcome his deepest fears; and the lively, fearless Ilka and imaginative Yasha. As an apparently ordinary kite-flying game develops into an absorbing adventure, the boys face situations that test their character and friendship. With warmth, humour and sensitivity, Krapivin portrays children as thoughtful individuals capable of remarkable courage and selflessness.
