Who do you consider a Great Author of the last 50 years or so (first well-known work after 1970)? I’d like to get a feel for who’s who in modern literature. Any language/culture. Fiction only.

Cormac McCarthy

I like to think that if Cormac and Hemingway ever met in a bar, they’d take turns sliding a pistol at one another across the table, for entirely different reasons.

Sadly I think both would want it, though as you said for different reason. To our detriment either way sadly.
