Hervé Guibert
#1
Hervé Guibert was a French writer and a photographer. He was gay and died of AIDS in 1991.

Guibert is one of my favorite authors (though not for his fiction), and his works I especially love are Le Mausolée des amants (The Mausoleum of Lovers), and À l'ami qui ne m'a pas sauvé la vie (To the Friend who Did Not Save My Life).

His The Mausoleum of Lovers is one of the most genuine and unique works I have ever read. I'm hoping some of you have heard of his work ( [MENTION=1766]princealbertofb[/MENTION] , maybe?), but in any case I'm bringing it up as a recommendation. He ranks there among the greatest artists that ever were.

As for his photography, I find he has a signature very much recognizable as him at a glance.

he took a lot of autoportraits which can usually be seen on the covers of his books:
