William Stoner is born at the end of the nineteenth century into a dirt-poor Missouri farming family. Sent to the state university to study agronomy, he instead falls in love with English literature and embraces a scholar’s life, so different from the hardscrabble existence he has known.
And yet as the years pass, Stoner encounters a succession of disappointments: marriage into a “proper” family estranges him from his parents; his career is stymied; his wife and daughter turn coldly away from him; a transforming experience of new love ends under threat of scandal. Driven ever deeper within himself, Stoner rediscovers the stoic silence of his forebears and confronts an essential solitude.
John Williams's luminous and deeply moving novel is a work of quiet perfection. William Stoner emerges from it not only as an archetypal American, but as an unlikely existential hero, standing, like a figure in a painting by Edward Hopper, in stark relief against an unforgiving world.

用戶評價
Stoner's heroism is delicately intertwined with his bitter failures, it is a secret power that makes him invulnerable. After all, he has achieved everything he truly treasured throughout his life. Yes, that power is his ever-lasting desire and never-dying awe towards beauty, knowledge and love itself.
评分A rich, sombre, finely hewn novel that is admirably simple, for tackling life's true sadness with transcedent serenity and existential wit, for seeing life whole without delusion or despair. With a pellucid and reticent prose, it addresses life's inevitable mediocrity and obscurity, while evokes passion and purity in seeking an adequate existence.
