Conversations with Walker Percy

These collected interviews, like a visit with Percy at his home on the Bogue Falaya River, provide refreshing close-up encounters with one of America’s most celebrated writers.

These twenty-seven interviews cover a period of twenty-two years, from the time of the publication of Percy’s first novel, The Moviegoer , in 1961, until 1983, when he was interviewed about his friendship with Thomas Merton.

These unabridged interviews, collected from a variety of sources, will give reading pleasure to general readers who wish to know Percy and his works more closely, and they will be of great use to Percy scholars.
