I have met several academics who claim that Pedro Paramo by the Mexican writer Juan Rulfo inspired them to pursue a career in academia, specifically in Latin American literature.For all of you Garcia Marquez devotees, read this mindbending novel by a Mexican novelist who is often cited by Marquez and others as a precursor to "magical realism."
I read it in English and I'm still not sure what happened. If you thought the last couple of seasons of Lost where confusing, try this short novel on for size.
