Nikki's last post and this one present a fascinating puzzle: How much was
Walker Percy invested in Lance Lamar? And to what degree was Percy's
disenchantment with Catholicism in the 1970s reflected in Lancelot? This
novel stands apart from the other five in being less comic in its satire.

I would be interested in reading what lurkers think about Lance.
