RARA-AVIS: Charles Williams' The Diamond Binkini

Charles Williams' THE DIAMOND BIKINI has been discussed on the list before and I finished it. Bill Crider mentioned recently re: backwoods themed novels and this one falls in that category.
 It takes place in the Texas hill country and uses a wonderful supporting cast that includes an uncle building an ark and an uncle making leather hides to sell. The kid narrator, Billy Noonan, tells everything in a wide-eyed wonder, but you just know it's the author's tongue-in-cheek. It's not for every taste but a funny, fun read.
