I had never heard of William Trevor when this book was mentioned as the next read for our Book Group but was very pleasantly surprised when I started reading. The book is about a group of flawed characters and Miss Gomez' involvement with them. Although none of the characters are particularly likeable the book is written in such a way as to draw you in and keep you interested, wanting to know what ultimately happens. There is much comedy in the writing even though there is little in the character's lives. If you like a well written story about people then give this one a try!
