Jeanette Winterson

Any more fans out there?

I absolutely adore her writing.
Oranges Aren't the Only Fruit is my favourite novel ever.
I'm currently re-reading Written On The Body, I was 16 when I first read it and failing to understand alot of it, so it's really good to revisit it.
I wanted to go see her at Hay Festival, but it sold out before I got chance.

Any recommendations as to other writers in the same vein as Winterson that I may enjoy?

Bethany Poon is on a distinguished road
I always figured she was like super, super pretentious. A Kathy Acker for the bourgeois.

I've only ever read The Passion and I thought it was amazing. I've been recommended Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit though and I'm keen to read it.

I really want to check her stuff out, but I have been unable to find it used in the local bookstores.

Someone told me she is the best writer of the English language right now.
