A Bit on the Side by William Trevor

3.0

Really closer to a 3.5 stars because I enjoyed the beginning, but couldn't help draw comparisons between another Irish writer who wrote an incomparable book of short stories about dear dirty Dublin. James Joyce and [b:Dubliners|11012|Dubliners|James Joyce|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1334138184l/11012._SX50_.jpg|260248] are truly incomparable for their complexity, density, vivacity. If I hadn't read Dubliners a month ago, I would probably give more credit to William Trevor who is not without merit, but James Joyce. Sorry.
