The Moviegoer - Walker Percy

Detalii:

n nWinner of the 1962 National Book Award and one of Time magazines 100 Best English-Language Novels, Walker Percys debut The Moviegoer is an American masterpiece and a classic of Southern literature. Insightful, romantic, and humorous, it is the story of a young mans search for meaning amid a shallow consumerist landscape. n nBinx Bolling, a young New Orleans stockbroker, fills his days with movies and casual sex. His life offers him nothing worth retaining; what he treasures are scenes from The Third Man or Stagecoach, not the personal experiences he knows other people hold dear. On the cusp of turning thirty, however, something changes: At Mardi Gras, he embarks on a quest for some form of authentic experience. The consequences of Binxs quest, on both himself and his unstable cousin Kate, prove outrageous, absurd, moving, and indelible. n nFeaturing an afterword by Paul Elie, this new edition of The Moviegoer cements Walker Percys place as a giant of American literature.n
