Favorite author.

Yes, but that's because you have bad taste.


Yet you're only 17, so there's still potential.

 

Only for another month. Then you can tell me all the anal sex fantasies you've had about me over the years.

Dan Brown

 

What have have you read by him anyway, Pavel?

 

i used to give people a hard time who like palahniuk, but then i read rant and changed my opinion about him.

 

I should give it a go, I just finished Invisible Monsters.

 

Fight Club, Choke, Survivor, Lullaby, Diary.

 

so you're just sick of him

yuck.

 

LOL

This was a joke right?

My favorite author is probably Julio Cortazar. I love LOVE his short stories.

 

Nah, a friend has all of his books and I've read them through different intervals while chilling there over the years. They are a fairly entertaining, quick read, but they have no quality or thought to them.

 

Jon Krakauer...hands down...

Elizabeth Gilbert I respect greatly...

Oh and if you want to get all old school...Kerouac.

 

Hermann Hesse or Aldous Huxley.

I can't really decide but I will go for Hesse because you will find him first on the library shelves.

 

two of my favorites as well!

 

That's because you've got a brain(as well as looks)

 

I have read one book by almost every author mentioned in this thread, but rarely ever enough books that I can pick a favourite author.

In fact I have read everything by Ken Kesey and I really, really enjoyed his three books and feel kind of sad that his other two are overshadowed by One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Still, couldn't say he was my favourite.

I have read almost all of George Orwell's novels and found them very consistent...all great, but no, not my favourite.

I am leaning towards Albert Camus, eeven though I have only read the Outsider and The First Man...both of them stunning reads, and quite enlightening as well.

 

TBH I dont read that much....

I mean...

I read the entire Sophie Kinsella series
And I am trying to read the entire Tom Robbins series
And Diablo Cody's memoir was great. But I dont have clasical taste.

 

Screw classical taste.

 

I enjoyed the ideas behind Camus' books, but not so much the narratives. At times, I found the actual stories to be a little boring.

Orwell is consistently good. Well written narratives with a point.

 

I really enjoy 'Burlesque and the Art of the Tease' by Ms. Teese
