| Thank you, John, for these comments. They are valuable in keeping up the analysis of The Moviegoer. I especially like that you say you would keep away from anything described as a Christian morality tale, yet you consider this one of your favorite novels; and I liked your idea that a book is enough if it is a well written novel, which this one certainly is. But best of all I value your insight that we should "...remember in the epilogue Binx does say that he is "his mother's son after all." I interpret that to mean that he has chosen the catholic faith over Aunt Emily's stoic philosophy." That is excellent. Janet --- On Tue, 10/12/10, John E. Riley <jeriley AT uark.edu> wrote:
