I really liked John Irving's A Word According to Garp and A Prayer for Owen Meany.
Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison
The Cairo Trilogy and especially Midaq Alley by Naguib Mahfouz
My Name is Asher Lev and its sequel the Gift of Asher Lev by Chaim Potok
East of Eden by John Steinbeck (ooh, that needs to go on the classic movies thread too)
The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck
