"Every horse story is a love story," writes Jane Smiley, who has
loved horses for most of her life and owned and bred them for a
good part of it. To love something is to observe it with more than
usual attention, and that is precisely what Smiley does in this
irresistibly smart, witty, and engaging chronicle of her obsession.
In particular she follows a sexy filly named Waterwheel and a grey
named Wowie (he "tells" a horse communicator that he wants it
changed from Hornblower) as they begin careers at the racetrack.
Filled with humor and suspense, and with discourses on equine
intelligence, affection, and character, A Year at the Races is a
winner.
