i just finished adverbs by daniel handler (aka lemony snicket) and loved it. he writes his adult books just like he writes the series of unfortunate events books... very stylized and smart, lots of wordplay. good read. not too long.
ethan frome was fairly short, if i remember correctly. written by edith wharton.
or how 'bout catcher in the rye. great book. written in that stream of consciousness style you seem to like. not too traumatic yet dramatic. about a childhood.
speaking of salenger, nine stories (known abroad as to esme, with love and squalor, i think) also good.
the play the glass menagerie, by tennessee williams
or the adventures of tom sawyer or huck fin
