hm...hard one but here goes. I don't have that many questions though, I think I'd just let the conversation flow in whatever direction.
# 1
Annie Proulx.
I would love to know a little more about how her mind works. I find her utterly fascinating.
# 2
Oscar Wilde
A man who fought with words instead of weapons and whose wit and intelligence I greatly admire. For me, he´s the perfect dinner party guest.
Hopefully he and Annie will get into a conversation about writing.
# 3
Ennis del Mar
I'm nor sure he would have much to add to the discussion, but the temptation to see him next to Wilde is just too big
# 4
Gertrude Stein
Oh the stories she could tell....

# 5
Nina Simone
Another person I´ve always found fascinating. Strong-willed, intelligent and unique. And always so damn vibrant and alive.

And as a stand-in (in case someone has to cancel) I'd pick the former The Smiths singer Morrissey. I don't think there's even a slight possibility that the conservation will ever turn dull with him around
