" Mr. Pickwick, she thought, and Weller—yes, Sam Weller, that was his name—and the long lanky Mr. Winkle who fought in the duel. It’s all exactly like that, she thought (trying to catch the aroma of the book, the bird’s-eye view which we reproduce when we try to remember something read long ago and build up from an incident or a character in the story). It’s all exactly like the background of Pickwick Papers. "

― D.E. Stevenson , Miss Buncle Married (Miss Buncle, #2)
