Zoran Zivkovic, guest blogging at Jeff VanderMeer’s site, has some suggestions of books by non-Anglo writers. I particularly like the sound of the Orhan Pamuk novels.
Pamuk, you may recall, was recently prosecuted in his home country for “insulting Turkishness”. He got off on a technicality. Details from The Times.
Pamuk is an extraordinaru writer; really wonderful!
