My favorite is probably "Apex Hides the Hurt" about an ad exec who ignores what is important.
"Zone One" is great too, a horror novel in the vein of Shelly's Frankenstein or Stoker's Dracula, this is about the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse, where the govt is trying to restore control, but soon falls into predictable habits.

Great author.
