Scott Esposito on Stoner: "what comes of this spectacularly structured, carefully manipulated
novel is much more than the events of Stoner's life. It is something
that spills over with humanity, a book that is by turns touching,
absurd, confounding, and beautiful. Without ostentation, the book
simply celebrates the everyda...y as something worth living for. It is
also an aesthetic treat, a book that any student of the novel would do
well to examine closely."

Readers may also want to take their time with this reissued classic of 20th-century travel literature, enlivened by Mr. Vernet’s drawings. Mr. Bouvier was a Swiss writer (1929-1998) whose buoyant spirits and effortless erudition must have made him the perfect c...hum to kill time with. To prolong the enjoyment of being in his company, I found myself laying his book on my chest for long sessions of daydreaming.Mehr lesen
