Hey does anyone know of any good books that focus on the development of and have readers sympathize with both the main male and female characters? Basically not male centered or particularly "women's literature." You know what I mean?

1Q84 is pretty much split 50/50 between a male and female protagonist.

Atonement has fun with multiple perspectives. It has the development of one male and two females.
