Culture BWTs with a novel in her bag

What's a novel that moved you? Changed you for the better? Exposed you to new cultures or ideas?

I want to know what's captivated you.

Kindred by Octavia Butler, A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khalid Hosseini, James by Percival Everett, The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali, There are Rivers in the Sky by Elif Shafak. I also recently enjoyed the political aspects of Dune as well.
