He makes a telephone in another place ring. He waits. Someone picks up.
“Hello Jacob, it's good to hear your voice.”
Someone moves by, someone at a stage where it is hard to tell whether they are someone or something. It, whatever it is, wails and complains. He covers the mouthpiece of the receiver. Then continues.
“You sound tired, exhausted. I am sorry that I had to disturb you in your sleep.”
Another pause.
“What with my funeral, yes.”

Jacob turned off the radio and unlocked the passenger side door.
“Get in! God, it's pouring.”
Paul climbed in and instantly turned around to look out through the rear window.
“So, what's up? What can I—” Jacob began.

The Unexpected Part 2 of 4—The Unexpected—The Unexpected Part 2 of 4
2031 AD
A decorative hardened-clay magnolia blossom, with the number 82 artfully worked into it, surrounded the door bell. Jessica pressed the yellow button and waited.
The exterior of the house was painted in an obnoxiously happy pink hue. The small garden surrounding the path from the fence to the door lay in a desolate state of disregard. Jessica checked the small piece of paper in her hand once more and then, shrugging her shoulders, crumpled it and replaced it into the hip pocket of her jeans.
“Who is it?” demanded a voice with a thick Russian accent through the door. &

While I'm at it what are some other good modern/postmodern novels? Faulkner and Woolf are oft-mentioned names. Beckett looks promising.
Faulkner, Woolf, and Beckett are some of my favorites ever! I still think that Woolf's The Waves is the best thing ever written. My top five (not including that or GR, as they've already been mentioned): The Sound and the Fury (Faulkner), Pale Fire, Lolita (both Nabokov), To the Lighthouse (Woolf), Ulysses (Joyce). Those aren't really postmodern, though (wait, that's a lie, Pale Fire is); for that I'd suggest stuff by Paul Auster, Julio Cortázar, Donald Barthelme. If Danielewski's House of Leaves counts (does it? to be honest, I'm not entirely certain where the boundaries lie), then definitely definitely that.
Oh man, I could go on.
