jack kerouac is my favorite...yes i am aware that on the road is garbage, but everything else he ever wrote makes up for it. (especially his novel the subterraneans)

some others:
herman hesse, john milton, ken kesey, mary shelley, james joyce, william burroughs, dostoyevski, henry miller, tom wolfe, sylvia plath, cs lewis, and bram stoker
