I just began reading Hermann Hesse's Das Glasperlenspiel ( The Glass Bead
Game), and it seems it would also fit into this category, as well as is many
others. Here's the book description from amazon

 "The final novel of Hermann Hesse, for which he won the Nobel Prize for
Literature in 1946, The Glass Bead Game is a fascinating tale of the
complexity of modern life as well as a classic of modern literatureSet in
the 23rd century, The Glass Bead Game is the story of Joseph Knecht, who has
been raised in Castalia, the remote place his society has provided for the
intellectual elite to grow and flourish. Since childhood, Knecht has been
consumed with mastering the Glass Bead Game, which requires a synthesis of
aesthetics and scientific arts, such as mathematics, music, logic, and
philosophy, which he achieves in adulthood, becoming a Magister Ludi (Master
of the Game)."
