I have recently read the first novel by Walker Percy, The Moviegoer. This novel was published in 1961 (when it won the National Book Award), it is almost possible to predict the type of existential crisis spread in the beginning of the century. The crisis of existence is related to the meaning found in places and times, and in our time it is the driving force of "keeping it strange" and the rising of our love for that place. Binx is not looking for God, but to better understand what makes his life meaningful. He was strongly aware of monotony and how easy it is to accept the details of life, so he will lose sight of the way without knowing it or even knowing the meaning of his existence.

Walker ยท Percy 's novel "The Moviegoer" won the 1962 National Award. In the same year, Joseph Heller's "Catch-22" and J. D. Salinger's "Franny and Zooey" were recommended. The story of how his book exceeds these two classics may be a good movie - or at least a reliable PBS album. You can see that there may be political activities behind the scenes. To be honest, this award, along with Booker and Pulitzer, is just a sky award for scholars and arrogant rich. But this is a totally different fish
