Roadside picnic by Strugatsky.
Easily one of the best sci-fi books, alongside Solaris. Both are relatively short, dark, intense and have that philosophical pinch which is lacking in western sci-fi.
Perfect for people who have recently discovered reading.

Flowers for Algernon
Easy to read, not that hard to understand the themes, while still having themes and meaning beyond the literal.
