Someone already mentioned Herman Hesse so I'll just say that anything by him is worth a read.

My picks:

<i>Collages</i> by Anais Nin - one of the most passionate writers of the 20th century.

<i>Things Fall Apart</i> by Chinua Achebe - great story of how British imperialism destroyed African villages and culture.

<i>A Happy Death</i> by Albert Camus - great example of a man chosing to live life on his own terms.
