While I was racking my brain to come up with literary couples for yesterday’s post, a few twosomes came to mind that just don’t fit in a “literary couples” category. They’re more like “literary pairs.” And you know me, ever loathe to leave out deserving characters, I decided to follow up with some of my most memorable literary pairs. Feel free to add to the list.

Gus and Call from Larry McMurtry's
Lonesome Dove
Charlotte and Wilbur from E. B. White's
Charlotte’s WebMarian Halcombe and Walter Hartright from Wilkie Collins'
The Woman in White
Frank and Joe Hardy--come on, surely you know this one!?!
