Is having a wife this bad?

Best books on failure and overcoming it? Pic unrelated.

Just finished Stoner. His sadness did hit me, I identified with him not having any friends.

I also read that the book is misogynous, but I felt agreement in how he felt towards women, his wife being resentful to him just for existing, and finding another woman (Katherine) to love for her mind, but being unable to be with her. Does that make me misogynistic?

What are your overall thoughts on the best novel ever written?

>couple pages about the birth of his daughter
>entire chapter about having sex with a teenager when he was 40

>book is called Stoner
>the guy smokes zero weed
Thanks a lot /lit/

What are some other page-turners?

That was...something. Pretty bleak and depressing. It WAS beautiful and touching, human condition, blah blah blah, but overall so fucking bleak and dry. I don't really understand why their marriage was that way (why they didn't ever try to fix it) or why he didn't just run off with Kathrine. For a smart guy who supposedly loves reading...very....npc behavior.

I finally found a book with prose I liked. Despite the loads of classics I've read I've never really liked one till now. What are books with prose you really liked?

more novels like this?

Well that was depressing

Finished pic related last week and recently started Revolutionary Road. What are some other novels that make the reader want to beat the shit out of the wife?

Not one joint smoked

Literally what was Lomax's problem?
