My personal taste goes
>Wolfe
>Tolkien
>Bakker
<POWERGAP>
>Dunsany.
I have no taste for the man even after reading The Queen of Elfland's Daughter and much of Time and the Gods. He is another lukewarm Victorian fabulist who writes amorphous, pastel scenes that have no real depth. Even Bakker, imitator of Tolkien as he is, is capable of better description and depth of character. Dunsany's only claim to fame is that he was lionised by Lovecraft, and the old gentleman's word is all too often taken as Gospel. I would rate Dunsay below Wilde as a writer of fantasy.

Hipster A: My musical tastes are superior to yours.
Hipster B (aka OP): Oh yeah, well I don't even listen to music. At all. It's all overrated anyways. I read literature, unlike you unwashed peasants.

OP, you would probably enjoy the art of anal sex.
