Personally Maugham's the razor'z edge. It might be a little on the romanticized side, but it peft a big impact on the kind of personI aspire to be

The Long Walk by Stephen King. It's a cheesy and kind of terrible novel but it taught me a lot about persistence and not giving in when it seems like the odds are against you.

Dog Soldiers, Robert Stone.

The Tartar Steppe by Dino Buzzati.

But snow crash is quite good. Of course, sprawl is a head higher.
And really wtf experience try Viktor Pelevin 's SNUFF. One of best dystopia /cyber books. IMHO

You may appreciate Le Rivage des Syrtes (don't know the English title) by Julien Gracq, who's got roughly the same theme, but with better writing.
