Richard Yates - Revolutionary Road (1960) one of the first books about the horrors of suburbia - and I'm guessing one of the inspirations for American Beauty, etc.
Jeffrey Eugenides - Middlesex You may have heard about this one, it's been getting a lot of press lately. Basically about a girl growing up in Detroit and later undergoing gender reassignment. Incredible book.
