One of the very best writers of our era. (The Washington Post Book World) His first collection since the bestselling After Rain， William Trevor s The Hill Bachelors is a heartbreaking book about men and women and their missed opportunities: four people live in a suburban house， frozen in a conspiracy of silence that prevents love s consummation; a nine-year-old dreams that a part in a movie will heal her fragmented family life; a brother and sister forge a new life amid the chaos of Ireland after the Rebellion; and in the title story， a young man chooses between his longtime love and a life of solitude on the family farm. These beautifully rendered tales reveal Trevor s compassion for the human condition and confirm once again his position as one of the premier writers of the short story.
