Who are your favorite characters in literature? Doesn't have to be in rank order or anything, but what characters have stuck with you over the years. Heck, if you can't come up with 5, that's even good.
George Smiley (John Le Carre's Circus novels) - a complex character with a complex relationship to the complex world of espionage
Sherlock Holmes (Arthur Conan Doyle) - the consumate "consulting detective"
Burke (Andrew Vachss) - an orphan ex-con with a memorable "posse" battling those who abuse children from the shadows
Willy Wonka (Roald Dahl) - a lively, eccentric trickster figure
Morpheus/Dream (Neil Gaiman) - the personification of dreams and stories who all too often is caught up in them himself. And yes, I'm counting graphic novels as literature
