I have a decent library filled with authors like Palahniuk, Ryu and Haruki Murakami, Vonnegut, P. K. Dick, and Thompson.

I'm looking for more modern/contemporary authors who share that absurdism, surrealism, and just plain weirdness.

i was looking for this suggestion and I second Christopher Moore. His books are absurd and hilarious.
