please respond im really lonely desu

I just like holding my copy of Stoner. Such a great press. The materials are nice, the art is good, and the design is top-notch

Reminded me of "the death of ivan ilyich" and even a bit of the end of Madame Bovary, but all three make me wonder if in death they found peace or accepted a compromise for the sake of "having" peace rather than being at peace.

Been thinking of picking this up from the Botanical bookshop across the street from me. I like EB White and I like writing about nature and gardens. Anyone read it?

I have no idea why the similarity with Death never occured to me before reading this post, perhaps because i read Death after Stoner, but thank you for this.

Does anyone know if the artwork was made specifically with Stoner in mind? Because it fits really well.
