I bought this book because of an enduring love affair with the literary works of Walker Percy. As an addition to the literary biographies of Percy written by Samway and Tolson, the letters serve their purpose well. As a letters volume on its own merits, The Correspondence of Shelby Foote and Walker Percy is unbalanced. Apparently, Foote didnt start saving Percys letters until the exchange had been occurring for some time. Nevertheless, it is thoroughly interesting to observe Footes massive ego as he lectures Percy, having the knowledge that Percy ultimately became the far greater literary star. If youve already delved deeply into the work and history of Walker Percy, youll need this book. If not, find a different starting place, this is not a good place to begin.

SAMWAY N O N F I C T I O N BY PAIGE WILLIAMS walker percy was not a boring man. He was a natural poet, a trained physician and a writer with a privileged but tragic past whose novels and essays reflected an enduring and often quixotic search for himself, his god, life's truths. He came from the South from Alabama and Mississippi, the most Southern states of all yet wrote with a universal eye and a cultured perspective. We learn why in Patrick H. Samway's biography, "Walker Percy: A Life." This voluminous work examines Percy's complex life in 14 sections, from "The Birmingham Years" (1916-29) to "The Thanatos Syndrome" and "Final Illness" (1986-90). Samway, who edited two collections of Percy's essays and letters while writing this book, knows his subject intimately, having spent many hours with Percy after initiating a friendship in 1978. "Both the man and the author intrigue me," Samway writes, "and I find in my own life that he is still teaching me." His finely researched account begins within the Percy familial web and the industrial city of Birmingham, Ala., where Walker Percy was born into an aristocratic chain of Confederate cabinet members, Ivy Leaguers, U.S. senators and world travelers. Percy's South was one of planter privilege, with chauffeurs, marble sculptures and furniture covered in silk, a place where Percy matured to the sound of Shakespeare, Brahms and Keats. "Walker would listen intently and catch the spirit and beauty of what he heard and root it in his memory," Samway writes.

Walker Percy The Second Coming Review by Charles Demm, Spring, 2002 Return to Index Percy, Walker. 1980. The Second Coming . New York: Farrar, Straus, Giroux. 360 pp., Fifth printing. “Perhaps, he thought, even God will manifest himself when you are bent far enough out of your every day lifeline.” (p.67). The reader of Walker Percy’s novel, The Second Coming , finds its protagonist, Will Barrett, entertaining such thoughts while living out the ‘American Dream’ in the soporific suburbs of western North Carolina. By most standards Barrett lived the ‘good life’. He was a quiet, courteous man who had moved to New York at a young age to make his fortune. And he succeeded, becoming a Wall Street lawyer and marrying into old money. After the death of his wife Will was free to devote himself full time to a life of leisure, which included countless days with friends on the golf course. Therefore, the onset of visions and signs, trances and temporary physical seizures, on the golf course no less, sent Will’s life into such a tailspin that he not only grew to see the world as farcical and banal, but even led him to the brink of suicide. Like John Updike’s fictional exploration of life among Wasp’s in New England, Percy’s novels explore human existence among affluent Southerners in contemporary American society. But also like Updike, Percy’s fiction presents the reader with more than one more critique of American popular culture and the secular humanist desire for the ‘good life’. In Will Barrett and the female protagonist Allison, we encounter late 20
