War and Peace by Tolstoy. it is far from 'recent' but i read it only this year. it is particularly interesting because it is not overly intellectual in nature yet still written around the time it portrays.
Robin Hobbs latest Fitz and the Fool trilogy are also great books i read this year. as are all her works really.
