I'd have to say John Irving. I have a feeling there would be no intelligent conversation, just me staring in awe with some drool on my chin.

Even though I don't drink alcohol anymore, I'd make the exception, if only I could share it with.... Charles Bukowski.

In Boston, we have a few Bukowski Taverns. We'd definitely have to go there.

Poor old Edgar, Id like to see what he thought of a Big Mac. He would probably write some gruesome, frightening story from that experience. :lol:

I would love to have a beer with Kathy Reichs. Just ask her questions about her experiences and how hard it is to be an anthropologist for two different countries.

It seems cruel to revive an alcoholic just to get him drunk again, but, I'd love to share a few with Capote.
