Woman in The Dunes is brilliant and unlike anything else. It kind of reminds me of Paul Bowles, weird, menacing, sensual.

Kris' list is wonderful. I would also secommend 'Silence' and 'The Samurai' by Endo(or Shusaku, if you please) and 'The Silence of The Mountain' by Kawabata.

Basho is great, The Tale of the Genji is vast and epic if you have the time...
