How dare you ask such a subjective question! It's impossible to give one writer that title because no one will ever be able to earn it. Writing is art, it is entirely personal and affects people differently. You cannot just ask who's the best or someone's favorite. I don't have one, I like a lot of different styles but there's no one person who does it all perfectly. Quite a few people agree with that fact.There are a lot of very good writer's out there, whose work I enjoy.
And please, refrain from asking for a list of the best, there's no order, there never will be, there never should be. Setting up impossible standards on "who is the best writer?" could stunt the growth of writers out there for copying that writer's style "for simply being the best out there" could damage their own style and growth. Imagine if a great writer like Shakespeare or Orwell had been compared to the other writers of their day.

Count of Montecristo by Alexander Dumas.Its about a young French sailor who was unjustly imprisoned for 14 years before he escapes and ultimately takes revenge on his enemies.The author did a great job describing the emotions of the prisoner.Disbelief,denial,self pity,madness,apathy and finally hope.
