INFP.
Right now I've not been reading a long book but some short story of unrelated authors. So I'll go with I've read last month:
Anna Karenina.
It's very curious how Tolstoy (INFJ) made a very critical but well meaned portrait of the INFP male with Levin.
Tolstoy makes display it's characters in regard of the mbti descriptions of the types, yet he obviously wrote long before Jung.

>Konstantin Levin: INFP
>Aleksei Vronsky: ESTP
>Anna Karenina (INFJ/ENFJ)
>Aleksei Karenin, the husband: ISTJ
>Kitty (definitely a Fi user)
>Stepan Oblonsky, Anna's brother: ESFJ
>Dolly, Stepan's wife: ISFJ
>Sergei Ivanovich, the philosopher brother of Konstantin: ISTP
>Dmitri Levin, the sick brother: A Fi and Se user for sure, my guess: ISFP

It's probably one of the more dynamics, if not the most, novels ever; specially in its first parts.
But yeah, it's one of the greatest because it interpelates so many questions about what to do with life and if human relationships are enough to fulfill life.
Tolstoi is a magician of the creation of complex and vivid characters, a mind-reader and a bast knower of the patterns of men. How I long to have that ability, I really do.
Notheless I think the ending it's a little weak and some chapters in the lasts parts of the novel drag it a little bit.
I just finished reading the novel yesterday
