oh man what a request. Read: Name Of The Rose by Umberto Eco or Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go
Yikes. Taking that concept a step further gets us into Never Let Me Go territory. Kinda scary, honestly.
You should read Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro. There are no spaceships of laser guns, but it kept me wanting to turn the page, and it's more science-fiction than most Holly Wood blockbuster sci-fi movies.
Warning: DO NOT watch the movie, or even the trailer. Part of the enjoyment of the book is the pace and the way in which the world is revealed. I haven't seen the movie yet; It might be really good, but if you are a book reader you should avoid it until after reading the book.
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro.
It is technically a science fiction book, but it doesn't really feel like one, and I think it fits thematically with some of what you are looking for. It's beautifully written, romantic and very sad. I wouldn't read too much about it if you care about spoilers, but the Amazon description doesn't give much away. link
A light board for tracing. A Wacom tablet for digital drawing. A selection of your own favorite dystopian novels, or even better- pick three you haven't read yourself yet either, get copies for both her and yourself, and plan to read one a month and then go out for coffee and discuss, two-person book club stylie.
The Wanting Seed is by the same author as A Clockwork Orange and is great. Classics- Brave New World, 1984, Animal Farm. Branch out a little maybe? Fight Club, or other books by Palahniuk. CS Lewis is great- Till We Have Faces, The Screwtape Letters. Margaret Atwood- Oryx and Crake, or The Handmaid's Tale. Tideland, and then watch the Terry Gilliam movie together. Never Let Me Go, which also was made into a fantastic movie.
[Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro] (http://www.amazon.com/Never-Let-Me-Kazuo-Ishiguro/dp/1400078776)?
I don't know about his other stuff. How about Kazuo Ishiguro? I wouldn't really consider his writing style similar to what you mentioned or Delillo, but I really enjoyed Remains of the Day and Never Let Me Go
Probably Never Let Me Go.
Never Let Me Go - Reviews kinda say it all, so I'll let you go check those out instead of rehashing.
