This should help you get started!  Just start browsing, reading, and writing anything you learn about these authors and pay attention to anything that strikes you as bizarre, intersting, unique, or just something you would like to know more about.  I will continue to research as well! Let me know if you have any questions.  (I will post some questions to keep in mind while researching within the next few days). For now, your job is to get to know these authors!
