Walker Percy receives the Laetare Medal from the University of Notre Dame at their 1989 Commencement. His address to the graduates is quintessential Percy--and a "primer" not only for his work but for understanding the work of the Catholic novelist.

He really starts laying it on the line at 7:30, God bless him. We shan't soon see the likes of Walker Percy again, but we could really use him now. Thanks.

I'm reading Lancelot this morning. Could it be Walker Percy's even darker homage to Notes from the Underground? Good morning to all who have listened to the message of Percy, and may he rest in peace. And may the living keep up the "search."

@steve I am a commie Roman Catholic--I love Percy you probably have a better chance than I do I believe with Bonhoeffer that there is a hidden church in which we are all members incorporate. The finest priest I ever met was high episopalian but I now prefer low mass no smells and bells.
Anyway God be with you and who knows as Paul says "Our life is hid with Christ in God" Dr Percy I believe is with Christ in God

God bless Dr. Percy and may he rest in peace. He was a Roman Catholic and I am a High Church Episcopalian Anglo- Catholic. Our Lord willing, however, I still hope to hang out with Dr. Percy in the next world:) --
