Who's Who - Modern Literary Giants of 2008?

As many of you may know, the exterior of the Brodie street library features literary giants in stained glass fanlights; Among others, you will find the likes of Charles Dickens, Robert Burns, Oliver Goldsmith, and Shakespeare. These men are the literary giants that someone deemed worthy for such an honour when the Brodie Branch first opened in 1912. Having just completed a Library Detective collumn for The Chronicle Journal (June 15th) "Who's Who in the Library windows" I wondered if the avid readers of this blog would be interested in discussing a modern equivalent. So,

Who would you consider a literary giant of 2008?
and
How might you honour their contribution to modern culture?

Please post your thoughts!
