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

[marcus AT loyno.edu]

I tried to go through my Loyola account.  The Hopkins
journal is listed on MUSE (which Loyola subscribes to), but
when I asked for Percy's story I got "there is no electronic
full text for this item."   I suspect that Percy's
agent/publisher contract imposed this restriction.  When
Sarah and I visited Bunt last spring, she referred to some
static at having given permission for the "Detective Story"
to be published by Hopkins without going through
agent/publisher.
