Title: Small Craft Warnings
First published: 1972
Description: Williams sets up camp on O'Neill's turf: a bar at the end of the world, shrouded in ocean fog, in which a collection of misfits huddle like birds evading a storm. Unlike O'Neill's eternally damned pipe-dreamers, Williams' crass menagerie of barflies (an itinerant beautician, her loutish boyfriend, a lovesick short-order cook, the girl he's in love with, and an alcoholic doctor) survive on hope and the possibility of heaven.
