Ok... it wouldn't be fair if I didn't list mine.
in no particular order:
1) The Fall - Albert Camus
2) The Karamazov Brothers - Dostoyevski
3) Candide - Voltaire
Arrggh... I guess 3 is very narrowing. There's many short stories that would probably rank higher than some books (well, in my list anyway).
