I'm in love with a married man... Ian McEwan! Margaret Mahy's 'Door In the Air' era children's stories are beautiful. Also, Niall Griffiths, Kafka, Alex Garland, Georges Bataille, J G Ballard... I rather love Julia Donaldson too, and have indeed informed her of the fact. (Unfortunately, she did not reciprocate.)
Myself!
