5.0 out of 5 stars
one of my 5 most favorite books...love in all its forms...,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Second Coming (Mass Market Paperback)
This gentle yet shocking tale of love and awakening moves me each time I read it...Percy is able to evoke a mood which carries this reader along in a diffused southern light, drawing clear-lined characters and spinning a tale I hated to see come to a finish....but I can always read it again

The cornerstone of twentieth-century "thinking" ...,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Second Coming (Mass Market Paperback)
THIS is the book that ALL "modern thinkers" of the day have plagarized from, over and over again !! I feel cheated because I didn't read this sooner, and because I didn't give Percy the credit HE deserved ... Percy had thought of, and THROUGH, everything there is to struggle with in this "thing" we call "modern faith." Sure, the language is this book is a bit harsh at times; but in the [paraphrased] words of Flannery O'Connor, sometimes you need to write in big, bold, RED letters to be heard, and understood, and accepted. Fortunately, there's enough in this book elsewhere that's redeeming enough to "excuse" the occasional F-word. So what, I ask of all perspective readers of this book, is worse: the believers [who are intolerable]; or the unbelievers [who are insane] ??Happy reading, my friends.
