Né pauvre dans une ferme du Missouri en 1891, le jeune William Stoner est envoyé à l’université par son père – et au prix de quels sacrifices –, pour y étudier l’agronomie. Délaissant peu à peu ses cours de traitement des sols, ce garçon solitaire découvre les auteurs, la poésie et le monde de l’esprit.

Work Description

Stoner is a 1965 novel by the American writer John Williams. It was reissued in 1972 by Pocket Books, in 2003 by Vintage and in 2006 by New York Review Books Classics with an introduction by John McGahern.

Stoner has been categorized under the genre of the academic novel, or the campus novel. Stoner follows the life of the eponymous William Stoner, his undistinguished career and workplace politics, marriage to his wife, Edith, affair with his colleague, Katherine, and his love and pursuit of literature.

Despite receiving little attention upon its publication in 1965, Stoner has seen a sudden surge of popularity and critical praise since its republication in the 2000s.
