John Williams: Stoner

He was forty-two years old, and he could see nothing before him that he wished to enjoy and little behind him that he cared to remember.



"This is one of the worst kind of all writers. He's committed to telling us and not to showing us. He wants to control your attitude toward the characters by completely demystifying them. Williams lays everything on the table, as if he's handing you a psychological abstract." - on Stoner
