I think in the Italian, you can start by Dino Buzzati's the K and some Italo Calvino tales. Try also Valerio Evangelisti's Eymmerich series, but once again not sure he's available in english.
Could you sum up "Roadside picnic" ? I'm familiar with Strugatsky name but certainly not under this title.
Of course, Pierr Boulle was translated many times into Russian and Ukrainian

I read his three novels:
The Bridge over Kwai River - with Alec Guinnes as the Colonel
The Planet of Apes - Hollywood versions suck
Malville - Nice post-apocalyptic novel
