Just a short missive to the list announcing that you can purchase Lauder's
book ($24.95) through the Percy Project Bookstore at the following
web-address:

http://sunsite.unc.edu/wpercy/bookstore.html

Below is a brief description as provided by Peter Lang Publishing:

"One of the most important American thinkers and novelists of the latter
half of the twentieth century,
Walker Percy in his six novels and numerous essays gave a Christian
existentialist critique of
contemporary society. Emphasizing the mystery of free persons, Percy's
writings explore and
dramatize the mystery of interpersonal relations and the mystery of human
person's relationship
with God. This book explores Percy's existential and religious vision.

Robert Lauder has fashioned a gift not only to those who already love the
writings of Walker Percy,
but also to those who have only heard of him and want to be introduced to a
wonderful mind."

--Rev. John F. Kavanaugh, S.J. Saint Louis University
