random but do you have favorite literature authors you’d be willing to share? I’m looking to expand my lit tastes

Sure! Idk what kind of lit you mean so I’m extra & gunna do a ton of diff genres (hopefully this isn’t overwhelming. Srry if it is in advance I just love any excuse to geek over literature).

I’m mostly into poetry, & my all time favs are prob Wallace Stevens for “The Emperor of Ice Cream,” & Langston Hughes for “Let America Be America Again, “Mother to Son,” & literally just anything he’s written (he’s phenomenal).

I’m also a fan of Mary Oliver, C.D. Wright, Sabrina Benim (she’s very 20’s age relatable), Solmaz Sherif, Terrance Hayes, and Natalie Diaz. I’m starting to get into Thomas Merton for both poetry & nonfiction (but am still early in & reserving judgement)

I’m not great with nonfiction, but always rec the lit mag “Brevity” if you like powerful short stories.

For children’s lit (which I HIGHLY recommend reading as an adult, too) I’d rec Sharon Creech for “love that dog” & Norton Juster for “the phantom tollbooth”

I’ve been into the political essay lately/am currently reading “The Power of the Powerless” by Václav Havel which is interesting. So far I’d rec it if you’re into that type of thing.

For like, actual book authors I’d say maybe Gillian Flynn (known for “Gone Girl” and “Sharp Objects”), Zadie Smith, Alice Walker, Emily St John Mandel, and a (very) guilty pleasure is Hemingway (I kinda h8 myself for liking his writing style. Fuck him as a person though). It’s funny though bc “novels” are actually what I read the least of, generally so srry if that’s what u were looking for rip

Anyways...this spiraled into a random mish-mash of shit I’m into, hopefully u find something within this that sparks your interest. Good luck!
