His work is always quietly compassionate' Elizabeth Strout\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this final collection of ten exquisite, perceptive and profound stories, William Trevor probes into the depths of the human spirit. Here we encounter a tutor and his pupil, whose lives are thrown into turmoil when they meet again years later; a young girl who discovers the mother she believed dead is alive and well; and a piano-teacher who accepts her pupil's theft in exchange for his beautiful music. These gorgeous stories - the last that Trevor wrote before his death - affirm his place as one of the world's greatest storytellers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Trevor is a master of both language and storytelling' Hilary Mantel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'He is one of the great short-story writers, at his best the equal of Chekhov' John Banville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'The greatest living writer of short stories in the English language' \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trevor, William","offers":[{"title":"Like New","offer_id":47028886372691,"sku":"XE80241337769","price":12.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"New","offer_id":50462870110547,"sku":"9780241337769","price":21.41,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":48688117907795,"sku":"XV80241337769","price":6.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/trevor-william-william-trevor-last-stories-2018-hardback-1133771950.jpg?v=1740346684","url":"https:\/\/theirishbookshop.live\/products\/last-stories-2","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
