Walker Percy

Wilbarit@aol.com

I took as my screen name Wilbarit but seeing it typed up here all the time I'm afraid someone may get the wrong idea. Alas, not everyone has read Walker Percy!

I have been fascinated with Walker Percy's writings since I stumbled across them some five years ago. I am not part of any academic community and so have often felt like my admiration for Percy's work is shared by only some tiny, invisible, contingent all feeling as isolated and eccentric as I do. For good or ill, the wonder of computers and phone lines is allowing isolated eccentrics of all persuasions to become communing eccentrics. At any rate that is what I look forward to from this forum - plenty of communing while keeping the eccentricity that any discussion of Percy's work necessarily requires in this day and age. It will be my pleasure to make the aquaintance of all those participating in this new endeavor. I hope you all will be able to say the same in the not too distant future.
