Goodreads asked Alexandra Burt:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Alexandra Burt I'd have to say Maggie and Brick from Tennessee William's play "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." The story is all about what's really going on in families. Maggie's resolve and heart she carries through the entire plot, trying to get through Brick's alcoholic haze, and in the end she makes things all right for everybody; a baby, Brick is the beloved #1 son again, and putting her obnoxious sister-in-law in place. She is the catalyst for the truth and smashes everyone's illusion. Gotta love them!
