Review:
Extraordinary . . . Mr. Trevor s sheer intensity of entry into the lives of his people . . . proceeds to uncover new layers of yearning and pain, new angles of vision and credible thought.
The New York Times Book Review
One of the finest writers now at work in our language . . . No writer practicing the form today moves with nimbler assurances than Trevor across such an impressive gamut of social types and emotional connections.
The Boston Globe
The indisputable master of twentieth-century fiction . . . Trevor s carefully chiseled, lyrical prose at once ironic and elegiac is addictive, his insights acutely compassionate. The tales are haunting and profound.
Publishers Weekly
A textbook for anyone who ever wanted to write a story, and a treasure for anyone who loves to read them.
Madision Smartt Bell, USA Today
The range of characters that Trevor manages to bring onstage is little short of astonishing. . . . A remarkable record of the distinctive imprint that Trevor has left on what is arguably this century s quintessential art form.
