Two Lives

William Trevor's astonishing range as a writer — his humor, subtlety, and compassionate grasp of human behavior — is fully demonstrated in these two short novels. In Reading Turgenev, a lonely country girl escapes her loveless marriage in the arms of a bookish young man. In My House in Umbria, a former madam befriends the other survivors of a terrorist bombing with surprising results. Nominated for the Booker Award.
