This is my point: the first name that you thought of, China Meiville, doesn't consider his books science fiction.
But he does spend a lot of time at SF conventions talking about "his" Science Fiction though he often prefers Weird Fiction to describe his work...

Assuming you mean China Miéville of course, Mr Meiville may very well not write SF but then I've not found anything written by him anyway... and even Google directs you to Miéville when you search for the not so well known Meiville...
