Encore Book Club - Stoner by John Williams
For our May read, we’ll dive into "Stoner" by John Williams-- which follows the quiet life of William Stoner, born into a poor Missouri farming family who unexpectedly falls in love with literature and becomes a university professor. Though his outer life appears ordinary, he endures profound disappointments in marriage, career, and love. It’s a deeply moving portrait of solitude, endurance, and the quiet dignity of an unremarkable—but deeply felt—life.
