That is a hard one... so many genres, and I like to read most of them. If forced to choose, I would start with the frollowing list: Crime/mystery - Michael Connelly. Western - Elmer Kelton. Science Fiction - Elizabeth Moon. Historical Fiction - Bernard Cornwell. Horror/supernatural - Dean Koontz. Humor - Gail Fraser (If you haven't read her Lumby series, do so).

Sorry, that's as close as I can come.

J.D. Salinger for Franny and Zooey, Michael Cunningham for The Hours, Andrew Holleran for Dancer from the Dance, Gabriel Garcia Marquez for Love in the Time of Cholera. This is a tough question! But these are the books I keep referring to when asked, so, I suppose that's that. Oh, and Sharon Olds for poetry.

Greg Iles is one of my favourites - he transports me to a different world for each of his books. I love the character of Penn Cage.

CJ Sansom is the best historical thriller writer I have come across - he writes the Shardlake series of books - the lawyer with morals and a big heart. His books are set in the sixteenth century during Henry VIII's reign - love them!

Mo Hayder is a fantastic crime thriller writer too - her best book is Tokyo, in my opinion - so skilled and multi-layered.
