Scope and Contents
From the Collection:
The brief correspondence between Walsh, a former Jesuit priest, and Walker Percy began in 1980, shortly after Walsh read Percy's Lancelot. Walsh, an Irish-Catholic New Orleanian born in 1925, joined the Society of Jesus in 1942. He left the order in 1973, but remained ambivalent about his decision to enter secular life. The collection consists of three letters and one postcard.
