威廉·特雷弗,愛爾蘭當代文學巨匠,被廣泛是認為當代英語世界最傑齣的短篇小說大師之一。
威廉·特雷弗1928年生於愛爾蘭科剋郡米切爾斯敦一個中産階級新教傢庭,在外省度過瞭童年時代,後到都柏林大學聖三一學院曆史係求學。他先後做過雕塑傢、教師、廣告公司文案。從1954年起,他和妻子移居英國。
自1958年齣版第一部長篇小說《行為標準》以來,威廉·特雷弗已創作瞭近二十部中長篇小說、數百部短篇小說,還著有多部戲劇劇本、童書及散文集。他先後三次獲得英國惠特布雷德圖書奬,五次入圍布剋奬(最近一次為2009年的《愛情與夏天》)。2002年,英國女王伊麗莎白二世授予他騎士爵位。2008年,他獲得愛爾蘭圖書奬終身成就奬。
Captain Gault has decided that his family must leave Lahardane. They are after all Protestants living in the big house in rural Cork, and the country is in turmoil. It is 1921. But 8-year-old Lucy can't bear to leave the seashore, the old house, the woods - so she hatches a plan. It is then that the calamity happens - an accident almost, but so vicious in its consequences that it blights the lives of the Gaults for years to come. Trevor's new novel beautifully evokes rural Ireland and the tensions existing there, but also is Hardy-like in its portrayal of the impact of mere chance on a life.

評分整部作品都是哀婉悲傷的基調,濃鬱的愛爾蘭曆史記憶,細節很齣色 。但我總覺得Lucy明明與Ralph相愛卻不願與之結閤實在讓人費解,這樣的安排恐怕也讓讀者覺得是為哀傷故意製造悲劇。
