The Box Man: A Novel by Kobo Abe
I have read this book multiple times [3 times, I think:]. It was recommended to me from a thesis advisor in Art school.
I love its nonlinear feel.. and its unique vision. It isn't for the "normal" reader", i believe. It is very strange twisty tale. I find the building up of this subculture of people who escape in boxes the most enjoyable aspects of the story.
