Was thinking about the October Book Club and how wonderful Kazuo Ishiguro is, with his deep understanding of humanity and his ability to paint subtle pictures with words. I need to replace the books by him that I left behind in hostels.
Soooo.

Soooo.
Which authors would you unreservedly recommend to people?
Margaret Atwood never ceases to delight me.
Who do you love to read again and again?
Generally comforting things. A Wrinkle in Time et al, The Hobbit, The Wee Free Men. They make me happy.
Which authors do you gush over?

Wodehouse, Orwell, and Douglas Adams. I'll never tire of reading and rereading their books. *NM*

R.A. Salvatore. I know it's absurd but his Drizzt novels get me misty, esp when his dwarves grieve.
