Hey /lit/

So I'm making a reading list for me and a friend of mine. The (relatively loose) theme is going to be "around the world". Classics, old books, contemporary ones, nonfiction, biographies, plays, all of it are fair game, really. Both of us are going to be bringing nominations to the table and then making a fairly concise list of about fifteen books to begin reading at the start of next year.

I want to include books that would maybe contribute to being a little more well read. Good/important European literature is really not all that tough to find (suggestions definitely still welcome though), but looking for works from Asia, Africa, and South America that fit the bill is tougher.

So yeah, tl;dr I need some /lit/-approved suggestions for literary works from all different corners of the world. I would appreciate the inclusion of some female authors too.

Thanks in advance guys
