William Trevor
William Trevor is truly a Chekhov for our age, and a new collection of stories from him is always a cause for celebration. In these twelve stories, a waiter divulges a shocking life of crime to his ex-wife; a woman repeats the story of her parents? unstable marriage after a horrible tragedy; a schoolgirl regrets gossiping about the cuckolded man who tutors her; and, in the volume?s title story, a middle-aged accountant offers his reasons for ending a love affair. At the heart of this stunning collection is Trevor?s characteristic tenderness and unflinching eye for both the humanizing and dehumanizing aspects of modern urban and rural life.
