For some reason there's a part I always remember, where the narrator says something like "And Stoner in his early 40s finally understood what many younger men had already understood. That the person one loves first is not the person one loves last."

It's ok but not as unfathomably important as some people claim.
His wife is a shitty overdone character.
Many people have sad lives and there are many worse than Stoner.

The Belle Jar has many similarities but it goes much deeper and portrays actual suffering.

>> No.21940640

>>21940600
The Belle Jar is retarded. Suffering is not even the point of Stoner and that's what you got from it then you're brainless.

Read a autobiography of a real person.
Try Renoir, or Van Gogh.

I sweats wondered what the deal was between lomax and that walker guy… where they lovers?

aren't they both cripples? I think he was just vicariously getting revenge through him or something along those lines

Lomax told him to go into stoners class knowing that he would make trouble. Why? Or did he want to help him and knew that stoner would let him through

>> No.21943303

>>21943253
He expected Stoner to let him pass. Lomax liked the cripple joy because he's also a cripple.
