> I'm new to the group. I'm sad to say I didn't know about Walker Percy
until
> 10 years after his death - despite living in the same area. I've been
> intrigued by his books for about 2 years now.
>
> Here's my question: Who is "The Last Gentleman"? I read the whole book
> assuming it was Will Barrett. But a few minutes after finishing the book,
> it occurred to me that the Last Gentleman is Death.
