Just finished (for the umpteenth time) The Long Goodbye by Raymond Chandler, and about to start William Gibson's Pattern Recognition, as I seem to be on a bit of a pulp theme right now.
Just to add a couple of bits to some comments above, The Kafka novel with K was The Trial and if you like Roger Deakin you could try Robert Macfarlane who dedicated his last book The Wild Places to him. He also wrote Mountains of the Mind which was bloody good from memory.
