The Wind-up Bird Chronicle by Murakami is great. I have heard great things about 1Q84 which just came out by the same author. I have it waiting for me, I'm just trying to psyche myself up for a 900+ page read.
In recent years I also like Cutting for Stone and The Story of Edgar Sawtelle (well that one I LOVED.... right up until the ending, then I loved it less. So take that as a warning).
