 Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 9:52 AM Subject: Re: [percy-l] "...to the gas chamber..." Thanks very much for the reference.  I 
thought that one or both had said it, but didn't know the original context 
nor who said it first -- I'd actually never read the quote itself until last 
week. I do have your book, Allen.  Haven't started 
it yet but I will soon and I believe it will help me a lot, given the topics 
covered.  Also have the O'Connor Mystery & Manners book which I had 
previously guessed might be relevant, but didn't know the quote was in 
there. I am composing the bibliography for the 
dissertation now, and am trying to figure out which are the essential 
secondary Percy texts -- I have so far, in no particular order, Lawson 
& Kramer's "Conversations" (both), Lawson's "Following Percy"s (both), 
Gary Ciuba's "WP: Book of Revelations," Crowley & Crowley's "Critical 
Essays," Martin Luschei "The Sovereign Wayfarer," Quinlan "The Last Catholic 
Novelist," Elliot & Lantos "The Last Physician," Broughton "The Art of 
Percy,"  Rudnicki "Percyscapes," William Rodney Allen "A Southern 
Wayfarer," Robert Lauder "Walker Percy: Prophetic, Existentialist, Catholic 
Storyteller," Poteat "WP and the Old Modern Age," and of course, Pridgeon 
"WP's Sacramental Landscapes."   This is in addition to the biographies and Ketner's 
"A Thief of Peirce" and of course the various other philosophers that influenced 
Percy (Marcel, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Aquinas, Peirce's primary essays) 
and then the ones that relate specifically to my topic. Are there any other basic secondary Percy 
texts?  Have I missed an important one?? Thanks again... Karey ----- Original Message -----
