Charles Williams (1886–1945) was a British poet and novelist. He was close friend of C. S. Lewis, and with Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien was a member of The Inklings. Most of his novels were supernatural thrillers that explored the intersection of the natural, human world with the spiritual world. A number of authors have claimed him as an influence, most notably Tim Powers. Williams was also a highly acclaimed literary scholar; and his study of Dante, The Figure of Beatrice, is still popular among scholars of Dante's work. Williams also authored a number of biographies, essays on theology and literary criticism, and plays.Notable examples of Charles Williams' fictional work:
