All the butthurt in /lit/ is fantastic.

OP, its rather hard for me to name any fiction books that represent anarchism well but I would look into some anthropology stuff on how different primitive tribes govern themselves as that can be quite interesting from an anarchist standpoint.

Iain M Banks' Culture novels are sometimes said to be anarchist, but personally i think they show life under a benign machine dictatorship. it's not like the Culture is run by a bunch of scruffy 20-something guys with randomly dyed hair and a circled A on their t-shirts.

The Short Summer of Anarchy, a German essayst trying to create a narrative of the life of a Catalan anarchist by mixing second-hand sources and pseudo-philosophical mini essays. It's way better than it sounds, believe me.
