Re: RARA-AVIS: Who don't you like?

I'm currently reading Charles Williams' THE DIAMOND BIKINI
(1956), and I guess it falls under this subgenre. It's been a hoot. CW's sense of humor gets lots of play. I'd love meet Uncle Sagamore in rural Texas. I wonder if CW used somebody he knew to base the characters on. I know CW had a large family with lots of brothers.
