I was delighted to receive my recent order of The Collected Stories of William Trevor earlier today but I had no idea it’s tome-like 1280 pages would amount to two inches (5cm) in thickness (Geez I’m turning into my namesake Rob, over at The Fiction Desk, who loves nothing more than declaring his book purchases in terms of centimetres). That’s a whole lot of reading but needless to say it’s a ‘whole lot of reading I’m really looking forward too.
A special thanks to Tom Cunliffe of ‘A Common Reader’ lit blog for putting me on to William Trevor in the first place. See Tom I do listen to fellow lit bloggers

You never fail to entertain me with your sharp and intelligent wit, my delightful little namesake (and no I’m not being sarcastic Rob
