"The New York Trilogy", by Paul Auster. An incredible mix of detective story, psychological novel, puzzling, plot turning, fresh, creative and quality literature. A must read.

"The Song of Solomon", by Toni Morrison. High class narrative about the quest of a boy in search of his roots. Beautifully written.

Any short story by Julio Cortázar. I'm sure you've never read anything like that. Pure magic in the form of words. Games for your mind.
