Country.
***************** I read RIVER GIRL a couple years ago, and I
got the idea it was around Tennessee or maybe Georgia. My
guess would be that HILL GIRL is set close by. I would also
mention that RIVER GIRL is a very good book. HOTSPOT (?) was
good but not as good as RIVER GIRL. I have been wanting to
get HILL GIRL for quite a while.
Incidentally, has anybody heard about a Charles Williams
biography? I'm positive that I saw some comment here about
somebody writing one. Call me morbid, but I'm intrigued by
the details of his death.
A common rumor had it that he took his boat out into
the ocean and jumped in and swam away, but a French web site
(the French had a real appreciation for Williams) said that
was what was written on a suicide note to his publisher, but
that he actually killed himself in his apartment.
