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.

读后感

听说,坏女孩走四方,好女孩,上天堂。所以《斯通纳》一口气看完后,心里会忍不住为它的销路担心。都懂的,今天能和正经文学争“一口气看完”的,是《琅琊榜》是《冰与火之歌》,和朋友圈那样让人欲仙欲死的社交网络。我安慰自己,《斯通纳》是足够动人的小说,而不是足够“高...

之前还在说着没有好时机读这本书,然后就忽然来了,是天冷了,戴着新买的耳机躺床上听,我的泪点总在那些关于过去的闪回的片段:噢,还记得那时候我们下课一起去喝酒吗。 1 Stoner被作者John Williams称作"an escape into reality",是逃入不是逃离,很奇怪对不对? 这本书在成...

人类至今其实没什么进步。尤其情感方面,对生死爱恨的感觉,对荒诞命运的感觉,嫉妒、贪婪、荣誉感和挫败感,几千年未变。文学的变迁只是在这些情感中陆续突出其一二。比如浪漫的、骑士的、壮丽的、颓废的、放荡的、失意的和诗意的等等。《斯通纳》在沉寂五十年之后风行世界,...

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...

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.

无法代入的人生,却是完全可代入的情感。不知不觉就过了一辈子,不只是最终,而是始终孑然一身。感慨家庭对一个人的影响,莫名其妙就引导了人的一生,这一点不是从Stoner身上,而是从他篇幅不多的女儿身上看到的。那一刻,觉得可怕。虽然是完全不同的境遇,也没有起伏大悲的情节,还是会在最后看到流泪。

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。

我想,好的小說是每位讀者都能從主人公身上找到自己的影子。《斯通納》就是這樣的小說,主人公斯通納就是那位像鏡子一般幫助讀者照見自我的人。他是一個普通得不能再普通的男人,沒有俗世意義上的功成名就,卻終其一生都不曾放棄對理想的追求和對信念的堅守。有時候,平凡與偉大之間,並無深淵巨壑。
