Piranesi
Susanna ClarkeDan Holloway@BexMarkwick Some of the time (if I'm not too jaded about people) I'd cheat & live inside one of mine (which is why I wrote some of them), & if I could stay in Florence then Hannibal, but I think Susanna Clarke's Piranesi would take a lot of beating

Record of a Spaceborn Few
Becky ChambersDan Holloway@stephens_ben I will only buy a hardback if I am absolutely desperate to read something. In 2 decades + that's been just Hannibal, Alan Moore's Jerusalem, & Becky Chambers' Record of a Spaceborn Few. Otherwise I wait because, & I speak for many, YOU CAN'T READ HARDBACKS IN THE BATH

Man on Wire
Philippe PetitDan Holloway@samatlounge Aside from Betty Blue, I'd go for Philippe Petit's To Reach the Clouds, which became Man on Wire. And of course Silence of the Lambs (The Hannibal Lecter novels were my specialist subject on Mastermind as I bore everyone by saying!)

I and Thou
Martin BuberDan Holloway@MarieAllitt Not sure it's from the discipline you're looking for but Martin Buber's I and Thou feels like it's really important. Phenomenology in general feels like it has a lot to say about the importance of "I". Maybe Hannah Arendt too?
