内容简介
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.

买了两本英文版,送给好友一本。很好看的书,虽然没有惊心动魄的情节,只是斯通纳有点平淡无奇的一生,但何尝不是我们自己的一生。我们大多数人日复一日过着重复单调的生活,经常感觉茫然失措,不知前路在何方,很多时候,只是试图在平淡乏味的生活中找到些微的意义。正是这些微小的生活意义,促使我们认真地活下去。
