这是一个非常具体的问题，但是……John Williams 的《斯通纳》是我最喜欢的书之一。不过读起来也比我平时看的书更吃力，我平时主要看科幻和纽约时报畅销小说。当我读到……
This is a very specific question but... Stoner by John Williams is one of my favorite books. It was also more difficult for me to read than other books I typically pick up which are primarily sci-fi and NYT bestseller fiction books. When I read the…
……触目惊心的数字；仅仅为了兽皮的利润就进行如此深重的屠杀。我们居然干得出这种事，简直令人难以置信。https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butcher's_Crossing （跑题了，不过 Williams 最出名的作品是《斯通纳》，一部真正美妙的作品，如果你还没读过，真该立刻去读。）
…The sheer numbers; the depth of destruction for the profit of a hide. It boggles the mind that we did this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butcher's_Crossing (Off-topic, but Williams is best known for Stoner, a truly beautiful work that you should read immediately if you haven’t already.)
John Williams 的《斯通纳》。讲的是一个平凡、算不上成功的文学教授的故事，叙述中充满了深厚的人性和温情。这看起来算不上什么大起大落的情节，但我认为这本书太棒了……

……事物本来的样子，珍惜小小的成就，去理解他人。更重要的是，它启发我学会独处，用头脑去思考世界并重建它。类似的书是 John Williams 的《斯通纳》。
…thing become what it is, to cherish small achievements and to appreciate people. And more importantly it inspires me to be alone and use the mind to think about the world and rebuild it. Similar book is “Stoner” by John Williams
John Williams 的《斯通纳》。它是一部慢热的作品，但绝对值得你花精力去读。这是一部关于一个普通人度过平淡一生的小说，但字里行间精准捕捉到了人生的情感。https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoner_(novel)
Stoner by John Williams. It is a slow burner, but it’s worth the effort. It’s novel about an average person living an average life, but the prose captures the emotion of life. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoner_(novel)
