I'm nearly finished rereading 1984 and my appetite for dystopian books is whetted. What are some other great ones I should check out?

The Giver is a classic. Very beautiful imagery.

The Iron Heel by Jack London is one of the earliest dystopian novels. Imagine if the third book of the Hunger Games were written by an early 20th century socialist.
