Alleen al in Nederland werden er van Stoner bijna 200.000 exemplaren verkocht. Met Butcher's Crossing laat Williams opnieuw zien dat zijn oeuvre van groot belang is voor de literatuur.
He washes up in Butcher's Crossing, a small Kansas town full of restless men looking for ways to make money and ways to waste it.
Ci sono voluti cinquant’anni per riscoprire John Williams e ora che il lettore italiano ha celebrato la pubblicazione di Stoner, ecco l’altro capolavoro di uno dei più significativi scrittori americani del secolo scorso.
In his National Book Award–winning novel Augustus, John Williams uncovered the secrets of ancient Rome. With Butcher’s Crossing, his fiercely intelligent, beautifully written western, Williams dismantles the myths of modern America.
