Modern French Literature

Recently I watched 'Le dernier métro' (The Last Metro), which stars Catherine Deneuve & Gérard Depardieu. Despite the latter actor's recent notoriety, I was still inspired to create a list featuring my favourite modern works written in French plus a bunch of extras written by the same authors that I would like to read in the future.
