Havnt finished it yet, but this this might spark an interesting line of inquiry. Is William subconsciously prejudicial against cripples? The author doesn't strongly demonstrate William's moment to moment emotions or reactions so I thought it might be a possibility, especially considering Lomax has been hostile from day one of meeting him.

Or is Lomax just an SJW: Finding problems where they don't exist and trying to bury the supposed instigator?

Also, as a side note, is there a metaphorical reason why Lomax is so handsome yet some crippled? Does the moment where he kisses Edith suggest that he had so much potential of an intelligent and sexual creature if not for his hump?

You could write Stoner from the perspective of Lomax and you would end up loving Lomax. That's what makes the book so great, the characters are no caricatures. I don't think Williams was against cripples, Lomax is trying to protect Walker from Stoner, whom he may perceive as being a threat to Walker/Lomax - Stoner is the better academic, Lomax is the better politician. Both Lomax and Walker have physical inabilities which binds them together.

>Lomax is trying to protect Walker from Stoner
So do you think maybe he just went a bit too far in his protectiveness and probably started to just feel animosity and uncariness for Will as a person?

But more importantly, why has he always been so hostile to Will even before this? Is he just not good with people unless they have something for him?

Wasn't Lomax cold to everyone back when he first joined the university? He never joined activities not directly related to the university and his tenure. I don't think he had any personal problem with Willy before Walker showed up.

Yeah you're right, and there's that bit at the party where he shows his true colours and is a really nice person.

After the party though, John Williams says he carries a cool anger towards Will whenever they speak.

Which brings me to my alternative question: does that have something to do with sexual jealously and physical inadequacy?
