I am sending this to the List because it seems to me to have enough content that could be of interest to Percy lovers. Jessica Hooten Wilson, the marvelous Percy scholar, is being interviewed on one of the Hillsdale/National Review podcasts by John Miller. Here she is discussing Notes from Underground by Dostoyevsky and Percy is mentioned. Apparently Percy taught this book in all of his literature courses. Listen to this interview and I think there will be something to pique your interest both because of the Percy connections and on its own. She is a pleasure to listen to anyway. The way she describes the book makes it seem almost as if Percy got the idea for his Lancelot from it. See what you think.

Miller, and interviewee Jessica Hooten Wilson |
