The Narnia chronicles always make me think of winter. Probably because I only remember the beginning of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
Also not great literature but Henning Mankell's mysteries and Unformed Landscape by Peter Stamm capture Scandinavian landscapes that are wintery for an oppressively long time.
Jack London's "To Build a Fire" is a classic example of a snow storm tragedy.
