Percy-L: Literary, Religious, Scientific, and Philosophical Discussion of Walker Percy

[Jim Forest <jhforest AT gmail.com>]

Dear D.E. Pierce,

It's good to have a new voice on the list. You may well wake us from hibernation, which we fall into from time to time.

I am fellow autodidact who has a long running affection for Percy's writings and for the man himself. I treasure a couple of letters he sent me late in his life. Would that he might write a few more.

I'm 67, a transplanted American who have in Holland the last 32 years, a writer, but no Walker Percy.

Have you a favorite Percy book?

Friendly greetings,

Jim Forest
