Between his Oxford lectures on medieval literature, Tolkien invented a mythology of Middle Earth. It was published posthumously as "The Silmarillion" in 1977

Absolutely the best analogy of the Genesis story ever.

I would place C.S Lewis' Out of the Silent Planet; The Hideous Strength; Perelandra at the top of the list for Genesis allegorical literature.
