Alex Garland
Author of, among other things, The Beach, here's another author whose work's been underscored by poor film adaptation. Although his themes reach back and borrow liberally from other classics (who doesn't?), like William Golding's Lord of the Flies and Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, it's pretty obvious that Garland's work adds something new to our culture. Looking forward to his next book, 28 Days Later, as it sounds like it's going to be more terse, and more to the point.
