Ms. Jackson's book terrified me! I thought my house was haunted for days - it was spooky and hard to live alone!
Contemporary SF isn kind of... lame? the 70's produced my favorite:
I strongly Reccomend Stand on Zanzibar, The Sheep Look Up and The Shockwave Rider- by John Brunner
If you're maybe into a more fantasy type thing: The Wizard of Earthsea is phenomenal - Ursa LeGuin.
As for sweet books by dames- Oryx & Crake is strong SF & Post apocalyptic. That's by a Ms. Atwood.
You'd have a hard way to go without giving her a look. You might also try to find the truly fantastic, phenomenal actually work: Engine Summer by John Crowley - an amazing little book right there.
