 Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Here is an ordered list of the novels of Kurt Vonnegut:

 Observations of a Misfit: Blogging & Writing Archives
In his sardonic short story “Harrison Bergeron,” Kurt Vonnegut introduces the “Handicap General:” a government official whose duties include incumbering “handicaps” to citizens to level the playing field.
It's hard to explain how much better I feel right now opening a private blog (by invitation only) where everyone can post whatever they want and not be harassed, ridiculed, defamed and misquoted.
Even as the slings and arrows of outrageous insult and random spamming occur against me, my anonymous, cowardly, obsessed detractors can never handicap me from being a great writer, entertainer, musician, artist, mother, athlete, intellectual and whatever else I want to be every day.

 New York Daily News - TV and Radio - David Bianculli: The tale of WNET tapes
And, without question, I'd work quickly to rescue "Between Time and Timbuktu," the 1972 "NET Playhouse" production based on the works of Kurt Vonnegut, starring William Hickey and featuring Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding, better known as Bob and Ray.
And from my own wish list of WNET treasures to be unearthed and restored, I'd also dive deeply for "PBL," the 1967-69 Sunday-night magazine series that was the video equivalent of, and forerunner to, NPR's "All Things Considered."
WNET was only one of several stations in a consortium producing that brave series, but WNET has the tapes.

 Tom Shippey, J.R.R. Tolkien: Author of the Century
Shippey sees Tolkien (who had survived the worst fighting of World War I) as part of a vanguard of "traumatized authors" (George Orwell, William Golding, Kurt Vonnegut, C.S. Lewis, T.H. White, Joseph Heller, and Ursula K. Le Guin), who had witnessed the twentieth century's greatest horrors, and who tended to write fantasy or fable.
Shippey's intention in his earlier book on Tolkien, The Road to Middle-earth, was to set Tolkien's work in a philological context by showing how Tolkien's relationship with ancient works and the ancient world informed his writing.
It is a huge laundry list of topics, and in tackling it, Shippey displays a formidable knowledge of philology, world mythology, Christian theology, and Old English, Norse and modern English literature and criticism.
