Certainly correct. Doug and Schwitterz have been among those who have constantly
pointed to mysticism as an important theme in P's work. Is mysticism in his fiction
opposed to institutionalized religion, Puritan or RC? Is it a supplement? Does P
support a mystic "Weltanschauung"? The Eastern or the Western strand of mysticism?
