I've never expected seeing Stasiuk mentioned on this list :). His books are interesting if you want to feel post-Austro-Hungarian and post-Soviet mood of eastern Europe and the Balkans. A lot of travels described there, so maps are in use as well. Now the situation is quite good, one can use reliable modern maps, but even a decade earlier I've been using pre-war maps when hiking in Ukrainian and Romanian mountains (both Polish WIG maps and KuK "Specialkarte").
