I don't really have THE favourite author. I read a plethora of things, from various periods and genres. Kafka doesn't cease to impress me, Turgenjev is great, I love Hölderlin and what about Selimovic? I love German and Russian literature the most, then to a lesser extent I read French literature, after that different other European literatures and even less from other parts of the world. I'm trying to maintain some diversity in my reading repertoire, though.

I can't stand series, in fact that's the reason why I avoid most fantasy. Trilogies are still ok, but if there are more than three books I ignore them.

BTW Have you noticed how nobody in this thread mentioned an author who did not write in English? Do all of you read exclusively anglophone literature?
