Stoner by John Williams: A Literary Epiphany



My short take-away from the 1965 novel, Stoner by John Williams.


William Stoner attends university to study agriculture with a view to taking over his parents' farm in the future. But a moment of epiphany when studying Shakespeare sonnet #73 changes the course of Stoner's life in ways he had never imagined.


Here's a link to Shakespeare sonnet #73: http://www.shakespeare-online.com/sonnets/73.html
