Recipient's book tastes

I am looking for contemporary or historical science fiction and fantasy (I like character-driven space opera, but lots of other stuff too), and 20th-21st-century literature (especially British or anything with some postmodern playfulness). I include a list of authors below-- anything I don't own by them would be welcome, but also anything they make you think of, and also anything my library makes you think I would like. These are more to get you thinking; I like discovering new stuff through SantaThing!



SF&F: Elizabeth Bear, C. J. Cherryh, Paul Cornell, Warren Hammond, Nalo Hopkinson, Ted Kosmatka, Katherine MacLean, Emma Newman, Lucius Shepard, Karen Traviss



GENERAL LIT: Kate Atkinson, Margaret Atwood, Julian Barnes, A. S. Byatt, Lawrence Durrell, Stella Gibbons, Graham Greene, Daniel Handler, Barry Unsworth, Jeanette Winterson

Do not get

YA, media tie-ins (Star Trek, Doctor Who, &c.), mainstream superhero comic books, nonfiction

Other advice/preferences

if applicable, I like my books in high-quality uniform reprint editions like Penguin Classics, Gollancz SF Masterworks, Tor Essentials, and so on
