Below is a link to a Boston radio interview with Richard Ford in which he cites The Moviegoer as “the book that changed my life.”
Ford is the author of The Sportswriter and Independence Day (winner of the 1996 Pulitzer Prize for fiction). He is eloquent and insightful in this lengthy interview, which includes radio listeners calling in.
Great stuff for Percy fans.
A nod to Kierkegaard and Walker Percy: existentialist tomfoolery, political satire, literary homage, word mongering, a year-round summer reading club, Dylanesque music bits, apocalyptic marianism, poetry, fiction, meta-porn, a prisoner work-release program.
