Salman Rushdie’s Satanic Verses. I took the view that he had written it deliberately as a provocation. Went back to it a few years later. While not his best novel, it is a nuanced description of the alienation, identity crises and cultural conflict that confronts all immigrants.

In Spanish, surely One Hundred Years of Solitude and in English, The Satanic Verses.
