Stoner, by John Williams has been requested.
I checked amazon. This is a rfeprint of a "remarkable" 1965 novel that
From Publishers Weekly
novel "offers a window on early 20th century higher education .... Sent by his
hard-scrabble farmer father to the University of Missouri to study
agriculture, William Stoner is sidetracked by an obsessive love of
literature and stimulated by a curmudgeonly old professor, Archer
Sloane. Sloane helps Stoner avoid service in WWI, ...and (I can't quote more
legally. smile), but it sounds like a v ery interesting and well-written book
from the PW review.
