Colum McCann once called Stoner one of the great forgotten novels of the past century, but it seems it is forgotten no longer - in 2013 translations of Stoner began appearing on bestseller lists across Europe. Forty-eight years after its first, quiet publication in the US, Stoner is finally finding the wide and devoted readership it deserves. Have you read it yet?
William Stoner enters the University of Missouri at nineteen to study agriculture. A seminar on English literature changes his life, and he never returns to work on his father's farm. Stoner becomes a teacher. He marries the wrong woman. His life is quiet, and after his death his colleagues remember him rarely.
Yet with truthfulness, compassion and intense power, this novel uncovers a story of universal value. Stoner tells of the conflicts, defeats and victories of the human race that pass unrecorded by history, and reclaims the significance of an individual life. A reading experience like no other, itself a paean to the power of literature, it is a novel to be savoured.
"A beautiful, sad, utterly convincing account of an entire life. I'm amazed a novel this good escaped general attention for so long" (Ian McEwan)
"A terrific novel of echoing sadness" (Julian Barnes)
"Stoner is a brilliant, beautiful, inexorably sad, wise, and elegant novel" (Nick Hornby The Believer)
"I have read few novels as deep and as clear as John Williams' Stoner. It deserves to be called a quiet classic of American literature" (Chad Harbach)
"One of the great forgotten novels of the past century. I have bought at least 50 copies of it in the past few years, using it as a gift for friends. It is universally adored by writers and readers alike. The book is so beautifully paced and cadenced that it deserves the status of classic" (Colum McCann Guardian)
"A beautiful and moving novel, as sweeping, intimate and mysterious as life itself" (Geoff Dyer)
"One of the great unheralded 20th century American novels...Almost perfect" (Bret Easton Ellis)
"It's simply a novel about a guy who goes to college and becomes a teacher. But its one of the most fascinating things that you've ever come across" (Tom Hanks Time magazine)
"There are a handful of books that have made me want to be a better writer, that in their quiet way have shown me the potential of fiction. Stoner is one of those. It does not rely on flash or suspense or tricks -- it is simply a stunning novel that through the power of character and language becomes more timeless, more important, more real, than most novels can ever hope to be. Stoner is something rare and precious that should never be forgotten" (Eowyn Ivey, author of the international bestseller 'The Snow Child')
"John Williams's Stoner is something rarer than a great novel -- it is a perfect novel, so well told and beautifully written, so deeply moving, that it takes your breath away...few stories this sad could be so secretly triumphant, or so exhilarating. Williams brings to Stoner's fate a quality of attention, a rare empathy, that shows us why this unassuming life was worth living." (New York Times)
"Rarely has the intimate detail of a life been drawn with such emotional clarity" (Simon Hammond Observer New Review)
"I've always said that my favourite novel is The Good Soldier but I'm not sure that hasn't been displaced by John Williams' Stoner...It's a wonderful book...simple, straightforward and yet full of displaced, sad things" (Ruth Rendell Guardian)
"The novel is filled with life's most profound moments and passions" (Independent)
"The most extraordinary work of fiction I've read in a long time... If you're looking for a book that's simple and subtle, warmly human and at the same time utterly pitiless in his rendition of the vicissitudes of an ordinary existence, here's one you will read again and again" (John Gray New Statesman)
"Serious, beautiful and affecting, what makes Stoner so impressive is the contained intensity the author and character share" (The New Republic)
"A masterly portrait of a truly virtuous and dedicated man" (New Yorker)
"An exquisite study, bleak as a Hopper" (Los Angeles Times)

[b]Beschrijving[/b]
Een roman over het verlangen naar een intens leven, en het verlies van onschuld; een verhaal dat
diep graaft in de menselijke ziel.
Amerika, 1870. De jonge Will Andrews stopt met zijn opleiding aan Harvard en trekt westwaarts op
zoek naar avontuur, naar het echte Amerika. Als hij na een lange reis aankomt in het van god en
iedereen verlaten dorp Butcher’s Crossing in Kansas neemt Andrews een ingrijpend besluit: hij gaat
mee op wat een van de laatste grote jachten op de bizon zal zijn, een dier dat vrijwel uitgeroeid is
door de handel in huiden.
De ervaren jager Miller leidt de expeditie naar een kudde van duizenden bizons in een verstopte
vallei. Terwijl Miller als een bezetene in de weer is om elke nog levende bizon te doden, worden de
mannen in het nauw gedreven door de snel invallende winter en leert Andrews meer van zijn land
dan hij ooit had kunnen voorzien.
Elk aspect van Andrews beproeving, van de langdurige paardrijritten over de verlaten prairie en het
verbeten slachten van de vele bizons tot de harde overlevingsstrijd in de ruige natuur, is beschreven
in de onwaarschijnlijk mooie, sobere en heldere stijl van John Williams.

Easy to Love (1953) Xvid 1cd - Esther Williams, Van Johnson Musi
Easy to Love (1953) Xvid 1cd - Esther Williams, Van Johnson Musical [DDR]
Easy to Love is a 1953 musical film directed by Charles Walters. It stars Esther Williams and Van Johnson. It was Williams' final aquatic film with a U.S. setting.
CAST:-
Esther Williams as Julie Hallerton
Van Johnson as Ray Lloyd
Tony Martin as Barry Gordon
John Bromfield as Hank
Edna Skinner as Nancy Parmel
Carroll Baker (in her feature film debut) as Clarice
Directed by Charles Walters
Running time 96 min.
SYNOPSIS:- Easy To Love 1953
Ray Lloyd runs a successful Cypress Gardens water show, but star attraction Julie Hallerton is overworked and underpaid. She fibs about pretending to marry her aquatic partner Hank, but is persuaded by Ray to accompany him to New York instead.
Julie's hired to pose for a magazine lipstick ad when handsome singer Barry Gordon takes the place of a male model and kisses her instead. Barry offers to introduce Julie to a promoter who will pay and treat her better than Ray does.
When they return to Florida, a jealous Hank tells off Ray for not realizing how Julie truly feels. Her roommate Nancy whacks her accidentally with a water ski, knocking Julie cold. All three men in her life rush to her side, and it appears Barry's going to win her.
At the last moment, Ray realizes he's in love with Julie, and vice versa. Barry quickly turns his attention to another bathing beauty while Nancy reveals a romantic interest in Hank.
The Cole Porter title tune is but one of the musical highlights in the (literally) splashy Esther Williams musical Easy to Love. Reshuffling plot devices utilized in previous Williams vehicles, the film casts Williams as Julie Hallerton, the star of Ray Lloyd's (Van Johnson) aquacade. She loves Lloyd, but he hardly knows she exists. Only when she inaugurates romances with swimming instructor Hank (John Bromfield) and singer Barry (Tony Martin) does Lloyd wake up and smell the chlorine. The plot's finale is top-heavy with "good sport" behavior involving the three male leads. However, if you've come to an Esther Williams movie for the plot, maybe you'd better try another theatre. Easy to Love is the film that includes Busby Berkeley's legendary "motorboat/hang-glider" production number, performed at Florida's Cypress Gardens--though, incredibly, this aquatic tour de force is not the end of the picture!

[quote]Review by James Christopher Monger
John Williams skillfully utilizes the formidable talents of renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma and equally beloved violinist Itzhak Perlman to flesh out director Rob Marshall's celluloid rendering of the bestselling novel by Arthur Golden, Memoirs of a Geisha. Elegant and predictable, Williams sticks to the source, building grand Western themes off of traditional Japanese melodies with a heady mix of regional instrumentation (shakuhachi and koto) and cinematic know-how. This is the composer at his most refined and nuanced, providing a textbook example of professional composition that revels in its subject matter without ever intruding.[/quote]

La-La Land Records, WEA and Warner Bros. proudly present the remastered and expanded, limited edition 2-CD set of John Williams’ Academy Award Nominated original score to the 1987 feature film EMPIRE OF THE SUN, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Christian Bale, John Malkovich and Miranda Richardson. Heralded as one of the acclaimed composer’s finest works, Mr. Williams’ masterful orchestral score seeks no less than the openness of the human heart, mind and soul – the perfect compliment to this powerful and indelible film about a young English boy’s emotional and physical struggle to survive the Japanese occupation of China during WWII.
This deluxe re-issue was produced, assembled and mastered by Mike Matessino in cooperation with John Williams, Steven Spielberg and the film’s co-producers Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall. Disc 1 contains a full presentation of the film score, including never-before-released music, while Disc 2 pulls back the veil of the creative process with a selection of alternate cues and other additional music.

Biography[/b]
The most popular film composer of the modern era, John Williams created music for some of the most successful motion pictures in Hollywood history — Star Wars, E.T. the Extra Terrestrial, and Jurassic Park are just three of the credits in his extensive oeuvre. Born February 8, 1932, in Long Island, NY, he was himself the son of a movie studio musician, and he followed in his father's footsteps by studying music at UCLA and Juilliard; initially, he pursued a career as a jazz pianist, later working with Henry Mancini to compose the score for the hit television series Peter Gunn. Williams then went solo to pen a number of TV soundtracks for series including Playhouse 90, Wagon Train, and Bachelor Father; in 1959 he ventured into film with Daddy-O, and spent the majority of the 1960s alternating between the silver screen (The Killers, The Plainsman) and its smaller counterpart (Gilligan's Island, Lost in Space).
In 1968 Williams earned his first Academy Award nomination for his work in Valley of the Dolls; in 1970, he garnered nods for both The Reivers and Goodbye, Mr. Chips, and two years later finally won for Fiddler on the Roof. A slew of Oscar nominations followed, for features including The Poseidon Adventure, Images, Tom Sawyer, and The Towering Inferno. In 1974 he first teamed with a young filmmaker named Steven Spielberg on a movie titled The Sugarland Express; the two frequently reteamed over the years to come, with often stunning results — Jaws, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T., Jurassic Park, and Schindler's List were just a few of the Spielberg/Williams pairings, with Jaws, E.T., and Schindler's List all winning the composer Academy Awards.
Williams' other most frequent collaborator was George Lucas; beginning with 1977's Star Wars — yet another Williams Oscar winner — they later teamed for 1980's The Empire Strikes Back and 1983's Return of the Jedi, with the composer agreeing to score Lucas' subsequent Star Wars films as they went into production in 1997. He even celebrated his 30th anniversary of working with Steven Spielberg with 2002's Minority Report soundtrack. Other scores of note included 1979's Superman, 1987's The Witches of Eastwick, 1988's The Accidental Tourist, 1991's JFK, and 1995's Nixon. In 1980, Williams also took over for the late Arthur Fiedler as the conductor of the Boston Pops.
