About the Book

Lancelot Lamar, a disenchanted liberal lawyer, finds himself confined in a mental asylum with memories that don't seem worth remembering--until a visit from an old friend and classmate gives him the opportunity to recount his journey of dark violence. It began the day he accidentally discovered he was not the father of his youngest daughter. That discovery touched off his obsession to reverse the degeneration of modern America and begin a new age of chivalry and romance. With ever increasing fury, Lancelot would become a shining knight, not of romance--but of revenge.

About the Author :
Walker Percy (1916-1990) was the author of nine books of fiction and nonfiction, including the award-winning The Moviegoer and the New York Times bestsellers The Thanatos Syndrome, Love in the Ruins, and The Second Coming . He is considered one of the greatest American writers of the twentieth century. He went to medical school, intending to be a psychiatrist, until he had a bout with tuberculosis. He married and converted to Catholicism. He became a writer, and his first novel, The Moviegoer, won the National Book Award and has never been out of print. Alexander Adams is an award-winning audiobook narrator. He is best known for his reading of the novelization of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. He has also narrated numerous books by Jonathan Kellerman and John Grisham.

Review :
"A funny and scarifying jeremiad on the modern age. Lancelot is easy to read and hard to forget." -- "Time" "Percy's brilliant Lancelot vibrates with [Gardner's] stunning reading, marked by subtly delineated southern intonations." -- "Booklist" "[Gardner] gives excellent voicing to Percy's characters...The accent given the hero's south Texas wife is perfect. Accent as characterization is important in Percy's novels and [Gardner] meets the challenge." -- "Kliatt" "A fine novel...Percy is a seductive writer attentive to sensuous detail and such a skillful architect of fiction that the very discursiveness of his story informs it with energy and tension." -- "Newsweek" "A modern knight-errant on a quest after evil...Convincing and chilling." -- "New York Times Book Review" "Eloquent, reckless, accurate, hilarious...Plunges forward through tawdry bedroom mysteries toward a final grand puzzle." -- "Washington Post Book World"
