Anton Chekhov or Ernest Hemingway. James Baldwin comes a close third.

Perhaps my favorite author is Epicurus , I never expected to find a philosopher so human and kind to his friends and followers , in this case dining really does not apply at all. I would have loved to read his treatises, which have been lost. Only a few letters and sayings have been preserved.
Re: If U Had A Chance 2 Dine Wit A World Class Author, Who Wud Dat B? by Nobody: 12:38pm On Mar 20, 2012
James Hardley Chase

An author whose work remain relaevant through time.

I reckon it don't matter whether they're living or dead, considering it's a wish list and we ain't any more likely to dine with the living ones right now.
So my list would be...


Anton Chekhov
H. H. Munroe (Saki)
Mark Twain
Oscar Wilde.

I'm not so sure about the last entry though. Unless i'm a world class author whom he admires, i'd rather sit at the next table and be content with catching his conceited quips. grin

Unfortunately d people I also want to meet are all dead too,Socrates, philosopher and author, CS Lewis "chronicles of Narnia" and JRR Tolkien "Lord of the Rings" but that said I would settle for Robert Greene "48 laws of Power"
Re: If U Had A Chance 2 Dine Wit A World Class Author, Who Wud Dat B? by deebayour(m): 11:07pm On Mar 23, 2012
And let me add someone, Jesus Christ. forget the fact that he had a religion named after him and all that. With all those things we read in the bible I'm sure it would be wonderful to sit across the table and chat with him about issues like Nicodemus and Zacheuss did. I still chat with him in the spirit tho.
