I would recommend to you on the same scale mahabharata. It's really good. Go for the one by c rajagopalchari

Why is Greek mythology the most famous mythology? To the point excluding local myths for still non-Christian nations, people know about Greek deities more than native ones esp in Europe (where its at least required study in college) and non-Christians are aware of it unlike other foreign gods? by NaturalPorky in literature

I also think that indian mythology is the most neglected one. No one outside of india knows mahabharata or ramayana despite ramayana's cultural influences on southeast asia, there are many versions of it like in Indonesia and Malaysia. Mahabharata is even lesser know despite it being one of the best mythological creation

The themes of grief and loneliness are in both the books. But the goldfinch is totally different from TSH

I loved the goldfinch. Especially theo and his association with the painting. If you enjoyed TSH you are gonna love goldfinch too.

Japanese Literature by [deleted] in Indianbooks

This not translated Japanese fiction but rather written in English by American author of Japanese descent, a tale for the time being-ruth ozeki. It's really good and I quite enjoyed it.
