Unabridged Audiobook
A moving and impactful book! The narrator was outstanding.
Classic and underrated
A funny yet moving book that spans a lifetime. You feel for the protagonist and every side character is memorable. Robin Field makes the characters feel alive and diverse. Excellent! One of my favorite books of all time!
A great book about an average man and the similarities we all have with him and those life experiences.
This will be in my top 5 books from now on. One of the most interesting characters I have ever read. Hard to put into words. But I absolutely loved this book. Beautifully written. Beautifully read. 10/10.
The narrator did a fine job. The book is utterly depressing but designed to be so. It doesn't bode well for my profession which is as an English professor.
A slow, slow read about a protagonist's life. I had a hard time feeling sympathy for Stoner because he was so passive. He allowed a lot of the early things to happen in his life with his wife and daughter. A lot of his problems stem from the early ones, mainly his family. He lives a miserable life and the book is a little depressing.
It has been my experience to let my mind wander when i am listening to an audio book. Rewinds inevitably follow. But not with 'Stoner'. The superb narration clutches you and you are hooked....what a treat!
This book is a great work of art. The narrator does it justice.
