读了一半被我落在飞机上了。。其实整个故事就是摩羯座的一生。。
评分多年前读了中文译本,没什么感觉。这次读的是英文原著,很被震撼。这说明翻译确实是很难的。
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.
评分我知道年龄不太对 但我读的时候一直脑补stoner是李思涯lomax是甘阳 最后晚宴上stoner没给lomax一巴掌让我很失望

John Williams was born on August 29, 1922 in Clarksville, Texas. He served in the United States Army Air Force from 1942 to 1945 in China, Burma and India. The Swallow Press published his first novel, Nothing But the Night, in 1948, as well as his first book of poems, The Broken Landscape, in 1949. Macmillan published Williams' second novel, Butcher's Crossing, in 1960. After recieving his B.A. and M.A. from the University of Denver, and his Ph.D from the University of Missouri, Williams returned in 1954 to the University of Denver where he taught literature and the craft of writing for thirty years. In 1963 Williams received a fellowship to study at Oxford University where where he received a Rockefeller grant enabling him to travel and research in Italy for his last novel, Augustus, published in 1972. John Williams died in Arkansas on March 4, 1994.
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.
大致从卡夫卡和普鲁斯特开始,现代小说中的主角就不再是英雄人物了,而往往是庸常现实生活中的失败者。这种失败是现实俗世生活意义上的失败:他们或是无法勉强自己去获致这样的成功,或是无力像他人那样娴熟而不假思索地应接自如,又或是无法从所谓“成功”中得到愉悦感,因而...
评分by 谷立立 哈罗德•布鲁姆在论及塞万提斯时,使用了“人生如戏”的断语。因为就算《堂吉诃德》为塞万提斯赚得无数好评,却依然不能解决作家的温饱。“他除了要养活自己和家庭外别无什么雄心大志,他的剧作家生涯则是个失败。他的才情不在写诗,而体现在《堂吉诃德》之中。”...
评分多年以前我听一个老奶奶讲她的人生故事。她说,在收到女儿车祸噩耗的那天,她把自己关在屋子里,没有哭,只是静静坐着。当门再次打开时,已是神色如常,前来吊唁的人什么安慰的话都说不出来,只能叹口气回去。 她解释在那间屋子里发生了什么,说:“我把我自己的一部...
评分31岁这一年,我在读《斯通纳》。 而31岁的斯通纳,正做什么呢? 大约正带着那副圆眼镜,穿着不合身的灯芯绒外套 在清晨,穿过无人的小路,匆匆赶往大学的图书馆 “他游历过排排书架,置身于几千册图书中 呼吸着皮革、衣服、干燥的书页释放出的发霉的气息 就像闻着某种来自异国...
评分上大学的时候,我们都会遇到一种典型的大学老师:明明在教一门必修又基础的课却把内容、作业和考试的难度上升到让所有人都痛不欲生的地步;似乎对某些学问有着极为深入的研究和领悟,可上他们的课却很难从中感到被震慑的魅力;绝对不是系里的“红人”,搜索他们的名字,除了担...
