Primarily from the last ten years of Percy's life, they show how his presence was stimulating thought in much of humanistic America, in literature, linguistics, psychology, and philosophy, and in cultural life in general.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough this acclaimed author of \u003ci\u003eThe Moviegoer, Lancelot, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLove in the Ruins\u003c\/i\u003e never overcame his shyness with interviewers, he continued to grant interviews as long as his health permitted. This act of openness illustrates his humility before his ideas and his desire to help others understand them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe interviews in this collection show him at a height when he knew that his illness would not allow him to write any more books, and that the only way to restate his ideas and offer a valediction to the large audience to whom he had always been kind, patient, and appreciative was to speak out.
