Stoner

A seminar on English Literature changes William Stoner's life.

He had entered the University of Missouri to study agriculture but now he will never return to work on his father's farm. Instead Stoner becomes a teacher. He marries the wrong woman. His life is quiet, and after his death, his colleagues remember him rarely. Yet with truthfulness, compassion and intense power, this novel uncovers a story of universal value - of the conflicts, defeats and victories of the human race that pass unrecorded by history - and in doing so reclaims the significance of an individual life.
