's review

it was amazing

I just discovered that I never reviewed this book. This book is a masterpiece. I probably didn't know how to begin reviewing it. A friend has already read and reviewed this book. Her review has such a high caliber that I will simply refer you to it:

/review/show...

I like her opening line:
After the 63 pages: “Stunned by Stoner. This is agonisingly wonderful.�

If you don't want to read a long review, make do with that one line. It says it all! "Stun[ning]" and "agonisingly wonderful" are perfect descriptions.

Quotes Karen Liked

John  Williams
“Sometimes, immersed in his books, there would come to him the awareness of all that he did not know, of all that he had not read; and the serenity for which he labored was shattered as he realized the little time he had in life to read so much, to learn what he had to know.”
John Williams, Stoner

Cecily Thanks for the link and kind words, but a powerful book stirs powerful feelings and that can bubble out in a review. All the compliments belong to Williams.
