The whole world in your backyard

I believe it was Emerson who said the whole world exists in your backyard and there I had beens in the cultural apex of the world, New York city, and missed the one event I would have most enjoyed: documentary screening about Walker Percy. Doing a cursory catch up I saw this listed on a blog and thought damn, damn. When I was decades younger I wrote to Walker Percy, sort of a fan letter and also a budding writer letter, and can I just say that from the Moviegoer on, I’ve been such a huge fan of Percy’s writing, of him, and he is from my neck of the woods.
