I thought I had commented in this thread already. Anyway, I'd go with:

The Book of Atrix Wolfe - Patricia McKillip
Good Omens - Pratchett and Gaiman
Cat's Cradle - Kurt Vonnegut
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
-George Steiner
