The harrowing but transcendent “The End of Days” imagines life in another pandemic as artist Egon Schiele and his wife, both stricken with the Spanish flu, spend their final days together. And in the poignant title story, an elderly writer takes stock of what remains after losing his life partner.“A master of fine detail” (Anne Enright), MacLaverty captures the joys and sorrows of everyday existence with “extraordinary emotional precision” (Colm Tóibín).
