Beyond Sleep by Willem Frederik Hermans
Beyond Sleep is a fictional work about a Dutch geologist's adventures in the Arctic. I'm not really selling it with that sentence, but it's very popular in Holland. It's noted for a sense of humor, like Vonnegut.
I picked it up at the "American Book Center," which had a huge selection of English language books. I saw some new releases that I hadn't seen anywhere else yet: Pynchon's new Bleeding Edge, The Love Affairs of Nathaniel P., and Enon. It had a small Dutch fiction section, with plenty of good options.
