>is faulkner, but for edgy people

Suttree and The Crossing are his best works.

Cormac McCarthy is still alive. Gene Wolfe only died recently.

The fact that so many 4chan posts still call blood meridian the greatest, or most significant, or most influential work of 20th century american literature, still shows you how far the western genre is from being a serious art. Psychology majors have long recognised that Dostoevsky and Hugo are the best in their fields, despite not being the most famous or the most well paid. Romance critics rank the highly controversial Tolstoy over other more popular writers who pleased courts around Europe. Western critics are still blinded by archaic prose, desolate landscapes, and commercial success.
