Review of John Williams's novel "Stoner"
Larry Bowlden reviews John Williams’ novel, Stoner, a beautifully written novel about the very ordinary life of a midwestern college professor told in prose as simple and flat as the life of the lead character. Widely praised when first published in 1965, and still worth reading, Larry finds it limited by its male perspective.
