20th/21st century novel recommendations to read for English Literature?

Do you have a theme for your exam (eg. I had WW1 at AS, and Love Through The Ages at A2)? And have you been given any set texts to read? It would be a good idea to base your wider reading around this. Personally though, I've enjoyed these ones recently that I've read around the theme Love Through The Ages.

Brave New World
Lady Chatterley's Lover
Dubliners
Jamaica Inn
The Bell Jar
The Catcher in the Rye
1984
We Need To Talk About Kevin
About A Boy

It all depends on what sort of thing you like though, a lot of it involves trying out different authors and seeing which ones catch your attention.

A Clockwork Orange
The Great Gatsby (actually American literature but a brilliant book nonetheless)
Fahrenheit 451
Cloud Atlas

Or anything by Philip K. Dick
