The Catholic integralist project I support is Gene Wolfe's: a new messiah who cannibalistically absorbs older human traditions and gives humanity a fresh lease on life by re-igniting the dying sun. That's thinking big.

Wish I could get one of them to write a long piece on GW for me.

I would love to read a piece on Wolfe's theology. But the general Catholic lack of awareness of his work is striking. I mean he's a figure who should be up there with Waugh, Greene, F. O'Connor or Endo.

R.A. Lafferty (about to be inducted into the Library of America!) is a similar case. We just don't have a criticism that can do justice to these figures.
