Probably many others on the WP List are following the comments on LITR as attentively as I am but, like me, just listening in with immense gratitude to those who are speaking up. What a joy it is rereading LITR in good company.

 

One minor comment. WP’s portrait of the devil (Art Immelman) is strikingly similar to Mikhail Bulkagov’s portrait of the devil (Pofessor Woland) in The Master & Margarita. Had Percy read Bulgakov’s novel? My guess is yes.
