Or to go with characters: Feste (from 12th Night). Artemus (Artemus Gordon from Wild, Wild West). Or Monsieur Hulot?
I miss Oz. He'd get it. He wouldn't say anything, but he'd get it.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Ann, that's a ferret.
McIntosh fits the face but doesn't really tie into a literary character.

I've been reading Girls of Riyadh. The blurb on the cover says, "Imagine Sex and the City if the city in question were Riyadh," and that's basically it. It's pretty compelling so far. I'm about halfway through right now. It was translated from Arabic, and there are a bunch of places where there are footnotes on cultural things or on Arabic words that didn't really have an English equivalent.
