Lancelot
Lancelot | Walker Percy
5 posts | 10 read | 4 to read
A modern knight-errant on a quest after evil; grotesque, convincing and chilling. The New York Times Book ReviewFed up with the excesses of the 1970s, Lancelot Andrews Lamar, a liberal lawyer and distinguished member of the New Orleans gentry, is determined to stop the modern worlds ethical collapse. His quest begins with his wifean actress who he suspects has been cheating on him for years. Though he initially plans only to gather proof of her infidelity, Lancelot quickly descends into a fog of obsession. And as he crosses the line from sanity into madness, he will try once and for all to purify the world or destroy it in the attempt. Mesmerizing and unforgettable, Lancelot is a masterful story of one mans collision with the follies of modern culture, and a thought-provoking look at the nature of good and evil.

#LetsGetLost

One of my all time favorite series: Lost. One of my all time favorite characters: Sawyer. Not in the least because he reads all the time. And okay, he‘s got the looks as well 😜

gradcat Yum. 😋 5y
Kalalalatja Loved Lost, and definitely #TeamSawyer! 🙌 (edited) 5y
BarbaraBB @Kalalalatja Yay 🙌. Great outcome by the way of your national elections. You took care of populism. Very good!! 5y
Kalalalatja I know, I‘m so happy! Although, Mette Frederiksen, who‘ll most likely end up as Prime Minister, and her party have an immigration policy I just can‘t get behind and aren‘t very ambitious regarding climate change, so I‘m hoping the other parties on the left will pull her in the right direction 🤞 5y
BarbaraBB @Kalalalatja It is so much better than in other parts of Europe. I wonder how the immigration policy will work out. It sounds very rigid but then again, they seem to want to invest much in integration programmes too, if I understand correctly. I will look closely if and how this works out! 5y
Kalalalatja I know, Denmark isn‘t the worst by a long shot! But we stopped taking quota refugees a couple of years ago, going against the UN human Rights convention. So I‘m hoping that will change, and focus will be on integration instead of sending immigrants and refugees home as soon as possible. 5y
BarbaraBB @Kalalalatja I hope so too. Let Denmark be an example of an alternative for populism in Europe. And yes with a focus on integration and the climate. I hope you‘ll succeed! 🧡 5y

I‘m so glad my husband love this book (otherwise I wouldn‘t have discovered it)

I loved how the man spoke of his love and of love in general. The prose was beautiful!
