A wonderful analysis. I remember getting caught off guard by the quote about love, took a picture of it after I read it like three times. I like thinking about Edith as a reflection of the Gothic father/husband. I would love to know what you thought of his relationship with Lomax and the doctoral student, I found that a fascinating depiction of male rivalry and relationship. I'm going to have to revisit "Stoner" soon I think.
