Dick, Robert Heinlein, Harlan Ellison, Mark Twain, John Steinbeck, Roald Dahl, William Gibson, Nelson Algren, Louis de Bernieres, Roger Zelazney, S. V. Benet, T. C. Boyle, Henry Miller, and many others.Everyone is influenced by almost anything they experience- for good or for ill.
Sounds Like:
Shane MacGowan... unconsciously brilliant. You
can intelligently debate any topic from
theology, history, literature and
philosphy... though only while you're out of
your skull on booze.
