Aesop Homer Douglass Adams isn't too bad either... Mary Shelly? That how you spell it? Only one book of hers I've read, but it's an all time favorite... Koontz and King aren't so bad...

Super Pancake Posted May 10, 2005 #14 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Hermann Hesse, great writer and philosopher, too bad he has been forgotten in mainstream literature and philosophy. Jean -Paul Sartre, another philosopher wrote some good plays Mary Shelly, frankenstien is my deist bible Plato, Aristotle, Homer and many other greek writers. Ernest Hemmingway Gabriel Garcia Marquez Aldous Huxley George Orwell Ayn Rand W. Somerset Maugham ROBERT PIRSIG KAZUO ISHIGURO Ray Bradbury, suprised nobody metioned him yet. Oscar Wilde William Gerald Golding William Shakespeare Douglas Adams, nobody liked the hicthikers guide Fyodor Dostoevsky Arthur Miller, rest in peace died not long ago and JANE AUSTEN now for those writers that are alive! Gary Brander, loved "The Howling" Stephen king Helen Dunmore Margaret Atwood Jhumpa Lahiri Donna Tartt Alison Lurie Julie Shigekuni to name some, I read to much to remeber others worth mentioning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
