About This Item
Synopsis
The Moviegoer was published in 1961 by Walker Percy. This novel tells the story of Binx Bolling, a young businessman in New Orleans after the Korean war who feels alienated from his own life. His life is full of daydreams, and he tends to find more meaning in movies and books than in his own routine life.
