Unlock the more straightforward side of Stoner with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!
This engaging summary presents an analysis of Stoner by John Williams, which tells the life story of a man named William Stoner from the cradle to the grave. Stoner's life resembles the author's in many respects: he finds his vocation as a writer and teacher fairly early in life, and devotes the rest of his life to literature. Stoner's everyday struggles are not those of a traditional literary hero - indeed, he is exempted from military service - but he comes to realise that the battles he faces in the classroom are no less important for going unsung. Stoner was a relatively unknown novel during Williams' lifetime, but has come to be seen as a classic of 20th-century American literature in recent years.
