That said, my favourite all time books (excluding travel guides and travelogues, which are by far my favourite form of literature) are "Wuthering Heights" by the fascinating and extraordinary talented Emily Brontë, and "We" by Jevgueni Zamjatin (the true pioneer of dystopian novels, way before Orwell wrote "1984")
And within the travelogues sphere, some highly recommendable books are "Eilanden" (Dutch for "Islands") by Boudewijn Büch, and "Atlas van afgelegen eilanden" ("Map of remote islands" - for sure translated into other languages too) by Judith Schalansky. Both authors have an extremely pleasant writing style that make you almost travel in mind to the places they are describing.
I got a soft spot for remote Island societies, as you can see
