Behold the Protong! by Stanislav Szukaslsi
This artist/sculptor created and wrote more by age 30 than DaVinci did his whole life. Any collection of works you can find by this man is well worth the effort.
Love and Sleep and AEGYPT by John Crowley
John is a master of layering patterns and synchronicities. In these books he explores the possibilities of there being many histories to the world.

This is a twisted beautiful story of a mute, persecuted boy's view of the world outside a self-righteous religious community.
The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks
A macabre look at an adolescent's feeling that something is missing.
Squeak the Mouse by Massimo Mattioli
Sexual, homicidal rodents. Nothing more but certainly no less.
