My favorite novelist, who beats them all hands down, is John O’Hara.

Many have been made and re-made into movies. Liz Taylor in BUtterfield 8? An absolute STUNNER. Timeless classics.

BTW this string ‘morphs’ into John Cheevers and a cabin. Sounds like it would make a good Sienfeld episode.
Then again most things in life can turn into a Sienfeld..
