This unassuming story about the life of a quiet English professor is one of the great rediscovered modern classics.
”A beautiful, sad, utterly convincing account of an entire life” Ian Mc Ewan
William Stoner enters the University of Missouri at nineteen to study agriculture. A seminar on English literature changes his life, and he never returns to work on his father”s farm. Stoner becomes a teacher. He marries the wrong woman. His life is quiet, and after his death, his colleagues remember him rarely.
Yet with truthfulness, compassion and intense power, this novel uncovers a story of universal value – of the conflicts, defeats and victories of the human race that pass unrecorded by history – and in doing so reclaims the significance of an individual life.
”A brilliant, beautiful, inexorably sad, wise and elegant novel” Nick Hornby
”A terrific novel of echoing sadness” Julian Barnes
