About the book

William Trevor's Beyond the Pale and Other Stories gathers eighteen stories selected by the author from across four decades of his work. Lives in Ireland and beyond are altered by remembered injuries, unspoken desires and choices whose consequences may remain hidden for years. Trevor finds emotional complexity in apparently ordinary encounters, allowing humour and compassion to coexist with loneliness, cruelty and loss. His restrained storytelling makes small changes in conversation or understanding matter deeply. This collection offers a substantial introduction to one of the finest practitioners of the modern short story.
