Ursula K le Guin has written some masterworks which have already been mentioned, however, her collection of four novellas titled _Four Ways to Forgiveness_ has so far been overlooked. I'm a huge fan of _The Dispossessed_ and _The Left Hand of Darkeness_, but _Four Ways.._ blew me away.

(I have not read Grass, but it's been on my list for a long time now...hmm...)
