I (have) read

The Sirens of Titan, Kurt Vonnegut*

The Bell Jar, Sylvia Plath*

Pinball, 1973, Haruki Murakami

Player Piano, Kurt Vonnegut

Notes from Underground, Fyodor Dostoevsky*

The Dubliners, James Joyce*

Klara and the Sun, Kazuo Ishiguro

South of the Border, West of the Sun, Haruki Murakami

Hear the Wind Sing, Haruki Murakami

Slaughterhouse-Five, Kurt Vonnegut

I Want to Be a Mathematician, Paul Halmos

The Unconsoled, Kazuo Ishiguro: a complete nightmare, eats at you from within.

After Dark, Haruki Murakami: gripping from the first page to the last, while always seeming a heartfelt, leisurely stroll.

If on a Winter's Night a Traveler, Italo Calvino: an incredible premise, a beautiful book.

Mother Night, Kurt Vonnegut

Blackshirts and Reds, Michael Parenti*

God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater, or Pearls Before Swine, Kurt Vonnegut

Sputnik Sweetheart, Haruki Murakami

Le Petit Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (en français, bien sûr!)

Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, Haruki Murakami: took me forever to get through the initial chapters, but was rewarded with classic Murakami elements in fine form.

Cat's Cradle, Kurt Vonnegut: cannot put it any better than Theodore Sturgeon---"This is an annoying book and you must read it. And you better take it lightly, because if you don't you'll go off weeping and shoot yourself."

Poor Folk, Fyodor Dostoevsky

Some short stories (A Novel in Nine Letters, A Honest Thief, The Crocodile), Fyodor Dostoevsky

A Pale View of Hills, Kazuo Ishiguro: hauntingly, distressingly good; do not attempt until you have read a few of Ishiguro's books --- the reader has to do a lot of heavy lifting to take anything away and this is impossible in a first reading (of Ishiguro certainly, but of this book as well).

1Q84, Haruki Murakami: an epic spanning three volumes, all you need to enjoy this is a little faith in Murakami and a little suspension of disbelief---let the story reel you in and take over you without resistance---you will be the better for it.

The Denial of Death, Ernest Becker*

Nocturnes: Five Stories of Music and Nightfall, Kazuo Ishiguro 

Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind, Yuval Noah Harari: poses as a scientific, objective account of our history but is incredibly partisan, deluded, and sometimes just wrong; if you did read this, it's also worth taking time to read some criticism, there's plenty available online from different perspectives---here are just two: 1, 2.

Criminal Capital: Violence, Corruption and Class in Industrial India, Andrew Sanchez

Animal Farm, George Orwell

Kafka on the Shore, Haruki Murakami

The Solitude of Prime Numbers, Paolo Giordano 

The Wind-up Bird Chronicle, Haruki Murakami

The Buried Giant, Kazuo Ishiguro

The Catcher in the Rye, J.D. Sallinger

When We Were Orphans, Kazuo Ishiguro

An Artist of the Floating World, Kazuo Ishiguro

Norwegian Wood, Haruki Murakami: the perfect entry to the magical style of Murakami; the lack of fantastic elements in this one means that the pure beauty in his descriptions of absolutely everything stands out---this may not be so obvious in his other (equally breathtaking) works where centre-stage goes to the insane plots.

Never Let Me Go, Kazuo Ishiguro

The Remains of the Day, Kazuo Ishiguro: the best place to start with Ishiguro, his themes and style are most clearly explored and developed here, making it easier for the reader to understand and appreciate.
