Facing a 12 Hour Flight back to Chicago I bought three (3) books at the Rome’s Leonardo da Vinci Airport:
-Crossroads (by Jonathan Frazen – The Corrections)
-The Secret History (by Donna Tartt – The Goldfinch)
-Stoner (by John Williams) called “The Greatest Novel You’ve Never Read”
STONER: Started Sunday, April 30th – Finished Sunday, June 18th (7 weeks)
This prompted the purchase of other novels by John Williams
-Augustus
-Butcher’s Crossing
