A Bit on the Side Zusammenfassung

A Bit on the Side William Trevor

William Trevor's Last Stories is forthcoming from Viking.

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.

A Bit on the Side Bewertungen

A Bit on the Side is a wonderful book... William Trevor really is the best short story writer alive. -Michael Dirda, The Washington Post
