Poėt i prozaik Dzhon Uilʹiams (1922–1994), laureat Natsionalʹnoĭ knizhnoĭ premii SShA, vypustil vsego chetyre romana, i odin iz nikh — znamenityĭ “Stouner”, kniga s neobychnoĭ i schastlivoĭ sudʹboĭ. Vpervye uvidev svet piatʹdesiat let nazad, ona neozhidanno obrela vtoruiu zhiznʹ v XXI veke. Pereizdanie vyzvalo v Amerike kolossalʹnyĭ rezonans. Znamenitaia na vesʹ mir Anna Gavalʹda vzialasʹ za frantsuzskiĭ perevod, i “Stouner” s nadpisʹiu na oblozhke “Prochla, poliubila i perevela Anna Gavalʹda” pokoril Frantsiiu. Vskore posledovali perevody na drugie iazyki, i k avtoru prishla posmertnaia slava. Krestʹianskiĭ parenʹ Uilʹiam Stouner neozhidanno dlia sebia uvleksia tekstami Shekspira. Otkazavshisʹ vozvrashchatʹsia posle kolledzha na roditelʹskuiu fermu, on ostaetsia v universitete prodolzhatʹ uchebu, a zatem i prepodavatʹ. Vse ego resheniia, postupki, otnosheniia s semʹeĭ, s liubimoĭ zhenshchinoĭ, i, v konechnom schete, vsiu ego sudʹbu opredeliaet strastnaia liubovʹ k literature. Otsiuda i udivitelʹnoe na pervyĭ vzgliad priznanie Anny Gavalʹdy: “Stouner — ėto ia”.
Poet and novelist John Williams (1922-1994), winner of the National book award in the USA, produced only four novels, and one of them is the famous “Stoner”, a book with an unusual and good fortune. First saw the light fifty years ago, she suddenly found a second life in the twenty-first century. The reissue has caused in America a colossal response. The world famous Anna gavalda undertook the French translation, and “Stoner” with an inscription on the cover “Read, loved, and translated Anna gavalda” conquered France. Soon followed by translations into other languages, and the author came in posthumous fame. Peasant boy William Stoner suddenly became interested in the texts of Shakespeare. Refusing to come back after College on the parental farm, he remained at the University to study and then to teach. All its decisions, actions, and relationships with family, with the woman, and, ultimately, its fate determines a passionate love for literature. Hence amazing at first glance, the recognition of Anna Gavalda: “Stoner is me”.
