Moby Dick

Unironically, Infinite Jest.

It is the greatest and most complex novel ever written, and also the most accessible. It is simultaneously postmodernism's densest star and also a great children's book. How Wallace achieved this is unknown at this point in history, but since Wallace's death in 2008, more and more scholars are dropping everything to pursue the book's mysteries. It's not uncommon nowadays for entire English departments to be devoted to studying Infinite Jest. These professors don't teach any classes; they just write on yellow paper.
How can a book be so instructive and so entertaining simultaneously? We don't know. It's possible Wallace never meant for us to find out. If so, we'll be forever in the dark. I choose not to believe that. I choose to believe that with all the light Wallace has brought into the world, transforming people both intellectually and spiritually with his timeless commencement speech, that Wallace designed the novel's secrets to be ultimately discoverable.
