Стоунер by John Williams
A quietly powerful portrait of a man who discovers a deep love of literature that shapes his life: raised in a poor farming family, he becomes a university professor and devotes himself to teaching and close reading despite a stale, often brutal marriage, the disappointments of parenthood, and the petty politics that stall his career. He experiences a brief, intense relationship and recurring professional betrayals that leave him increasingly isolated, yet he meets setbacks with a steady, inward dignity, finding meaning in work, books, and the small human moments that persist through a life of compromise and quiet endurance.
