Isabel Allende Llona (The House of the Spirits - La casa de los espíritus)
Gabriel García Márquez (Cien años de soledad - One Hundred Years of Solitude)
John Steinbeck (Of Mice and Men, The Grapes of Wrath, Tortilla Flat)
Sandra Cisneros (The House on Mango Street)

Fun, light reading ..
Janet Evanovich (Stephanie Plum novels)
JD Robb ("In Death" series)
Lee Child (Jack Reacher books)
Jack Higgins
James Rollins (reading now - Doomsday Key)
Jack DuBrul (Philip Mercer books)

and lately, I've been mostly trying a lot of the indie authors on MR. I've been very surprised at the range of genres that I've found I like, just by reading these new-to-me authors.
Eclectic indeed.

I watched a TV interview with Isabel Allende a while back. Fascinating woman.
