Strangely enough, I'd have to say Samuel Hamilton and his wife from East of Eden. I think the exchange between the two of them concerning exegeses of The Bible is hilarious. Steinbeck describes her (which is one of my favorite descriptions in all literature) as follows: "She had a dour Presbyterian mind and a code of morals that pinned down and beat the brains out of nearly everything that was pleasant to do."

Hi Jan, thank you so much for your personalized note in the Giveaway of "The Id Paradox". I just finished it and I think there is a good story there, but honestly I was rather distracted by the prolific use of descriptive adjectives. I also found the advanced vocabulary leaving me with the question of who is your intended audience? It seems like this might lose an average novel reader.
