Post underrated books you don't see other people posting about much on here or elsewhere

Naomi by Tanizaki. My favorite work of fiction. It's about a man who falls in love with a poor 15 year old waitress from a trashy family, he intends to make her into his ideal wife by molding her over the years.

As the story goes on, this girl turns the tables and ends up making him submit to her. It's an incredible exposition of female pathology and the power dynamics in relationships, as well as the subject of men submitting to their lusts. 10/10 fiction
