William Trevor was born in Ireland, but lived much of his life in England. His novels and short stories concerned the lives of ordinary people. To quote the New York Times, “His plots often unfolded in Irish or English villages whose inhabitants, most of them hanging on to the bottom rung of the lower middle class, waged unequal battle with capricious fate.” (Read the full NYT obituary here.)
