If I could bring someone back, I would love to have lunch with Jane Austin. Present day authors would be Eloisa James and  Grace Burrows.🌷📚🌷

That is a difficult one!   I have both living and dead.  George Eliot, from the Victorian period.  I started reading her as a teenager, and my hat is off to her genius.  I'd be a quiet little mouse listening to whatever she cared to say.

 

Henry James too-- what a witty dinner companion he would be.  Dickens, it goes without saying.

 

Modern times--  the late Pat Conroy.  He was a raconteur without parallet.  Joan Didion, love the way her mind works.

 

Too many to enumerate!
