Fools of Fortune (Penguin Classics)
Penguin Classics is proud to welcome William Trevorâ€”"Irelandâ€™s answer to Chekhov" (The Boston Globe) and "one of the best writers of our era" (The Washington Post)â€”to our distinguished list of literary masters. In this award-winning novel, an informerâ€™s body is found on the estate of a wealthy Irish family shortly after the First World War, and an appalling cycle of revenge is set in motion. Led by a zealous sergeant, the Black and Tans set fire to the family home, and only young Willie and his mother escape alive. Fatherless, Willie grows into manhood while his alcoholic motherâ€™s bitter resentment festers. And though he finds love, Willie is unable to leave the terrible injuries of the past behind.
