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.

(Reminds me of Russell's) Knowledge & Love & (pity for) human suffering. Still think he should have done more for his daughter.

评分

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.

隔壁老王的故事

评分

年度心碎圖書,從軟弱到反抗幾乎用盡一生,到最後也草草結束,很少有高潮,看似平淡無奇,但處處都讓人心痛。

不會再有一本書有這麼俗的作者名字這麼平淡的故事但讀的時候讓人放不下來看完瞭以後難受瞭好幾天. 是不是因為我們太習慣瞭英雄傳奇高潮迭起反而會忘瞭大部分人的生活就隻是這樣追求自己想要的 然後失去得到 在大事件裏起起伏伏 活著沒啥死瞭也沒啥人知道. 但有多少人能像他一樣執著追求乃至到最後無欲無求...
