I suppose it's cliche for a Sonic Youth fan to dig Phil Dick, but I've read a number of his books and I've usually found them great. Unfortunately his endings tend to let him down a little from time to time, but...
Try 'A Scanner Darkly' (the movie was good, this is better), 'Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said' and 'The Man In The High Castle'. People seem to fall over themselves to praise 'VALIS' but to be honest I thought it was too aimless and full of tangents.
