A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is an obvious choice I think.
Sentimental Education by Flaubert is another good one.
Zorba the Greek is excellent in my opinion.
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn straddles the margin I think. It’s up to you if you count it.
I’d say Moby Dick as well.
Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison
The Bell Jar
Tom Sawyer
Picrel is contemporary, released recently. Irish.
