Well, I should first disclaim that no book is flawless. But I can give a few examples of works that impressed me and stayed with me.

Dusk, by F. Sionil Jose. It's by an Indonesian author, about a family exiled from their home village in the 1880s. I thought there was som real gentleness and humanity in the portrayal, and I liked the way the family was shown. Their connections were so real. Admittedly, the first half of the book worked better for me than the second half, but still. I want to own this book.

Anna Karenina, by Tolstoy. Even though I don't necessarily agree with his outlook on life, I thought that he portrayed some very real characters, and very vividly showed the way people move in society. He also showed the characters themselves warring with philosophy (this is a thing Tolstoy does, haha).

The Last of Hanak'o, by Ch'oe Yun. It's a short story, and normally I'm not crazy about those, but there is just so much to unpack in this one, and the way the author shows the different levels of the story is pretty amazing.

...anyway, these are just some that jumped to my mind/that I've read recently.
