Oh yes, Viola who calls him Holdie, and those 'Ollies' connection had
certainly been noted. Viola, for me, is the only redeeming feature in all of
the earlier available drafts, as it were. If that safe contains older or
other drafts, what I'd love to read would be more on Viola & Phoebe rather
than, say, on Walt & Waker, though a full book-length work on Stradlatler &
Ackley might be fun too, but even that would be only secondary to Jane
Gallagher, who just might turn out to be a relation of Bessie's.
