Ooh, ooh, I have one! I joined this group just to be able to tell you all about Hrabal's Too Loud a Solitude. Also Fatelessness by Kertesz, which is less obscure.

I hope you enjoy these. Thank you all for your interesting suggestions.

Amari, Hrabal is amazing. Definitely check out his other books if you haven't yet. I thought Too Loud a Solitude was the best of them, but they're all pretty good.

So these may not be totally obscure, but in my opinion, they should definitely be more widely read than they currently are.
