The Collected Stories

A collection of short stories from celebrated author William Trevor in which he shines a light on the day-to-day life of Ireland and its citizens

From his debut collection, â€œThe Day We Got Drunk on Cake,â€ published in 1968, to â€œFamily Sinsâ€ (1990), William Trevor has crafted the short story to perfection, giving us brilliant and subtle stories full of the reversals, surprises, and shadowy truths we discover in life itself. To read this volume is not just to encounter an extraordinary literary stylist, but to understand life as surely as though we were looking through the eyes of his protagonists andâ€”deeper stillâ€”into their hearts.

William Trevor: The Collected Stories includes the tales from his seven previous books, as well as four stories that have never appeared in book form in America. They depict the comforts and frustrations of life in rural Ireland, the complexities of family relationships, and the elusive grace of love. They portray the almost invisible strands that bind people to each other as well as the chains that imprison them in solitary yearning.
