Love and Summer - Brossura
The inimitable William Trevor returns with a story of suspicion, guilt, forbidden love and the possibility of starting over.
It’s summer, and nothing much is happening in Rathmoye. So it doesn’t go unnoticed when a dark-haired stranger begins photographing the mourners at Mrs. Connulty’s funeral. Florian Kilderry couldn’t know that the Connultys were said to own half the town. But Miss Connulty resolves to keep an eye on Florian ... and she becomes a witness to the ensuing events. In a characteristically masterful way, Trevor evokes the passions and frustrations in an Irish town during one long summer.
From the Hardcover edition.

Recensione:
"Trevor is fantastically effective at foreboding; he can make a reader squirm just by withholding the next bit of some long-past anterior action he's been recounting. . . . Love and Summer, the latest item from his venerable suitcase, is a thrilling work of art."
— Thomas Mallon, The New York Times
"Marvellously written, consummately plotted. . . . One of the joys of Love and Summer is the perfection of its Irish geography and the wealth of emotions attached to it. . . . As brief and beautiful as summer itself, it is a book to be read and reread, as perfect a thing as our blemished world can offer
— The Globe and Mail
"A triumph of style and content."
— The Herald
"Love and Summer is so exquisite I had to pace myself reading it, so it wouldn't end too soon."
— Belfast Telegraph
