5.0 out of 5 stars The Autobiography of a Contemporary Master, April 4, 2000
This review is from: Excursions in the Real World: Memoirs (Paperback)
Admirers of Trevor's masterly fiction will enjoy these incisive, witty, heartbreaking essays revisiting his youth and early adulthood. The short piece about his parents is probably the most moving thing he's ever written. Most writers use autobiography to settle scores; Trevor uses it to give shape to the life of memory--a shape, in its own way, just as artful and just as true as the shape he gives to the life of his fiction.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excursions Into the Real World, December 10, 2011

Anything this guy writes is 5 star. This "real world" is the author's world. This is autobiographical his life vs. fiction. Worth the reading, for his talent and his honesty.
