Any good Lit?

[avalynne]

What's the most fucked up novel you've ever read? Why? I'm looking for a good book to read when I'm done with the series I'm reading now. Help me out.

[Thought Riot]

A Clockwork Orange possibly. The beginning is just filled with ultra-violence, rape, and drug use.

[dreiman]

Anything from HP Lovecraft.

[VVeathers]

Alot of Richard Laymon's messed up in a B-movie slasher way.

If you fancy somehting a bit grittier you can't really go wrong with a bit of Chuck Palanhuik or Bukowski.

Love this trilogy. Check out Schrodinger's Cat trilogy too - also by Robert Anton Wilson.

[Built To Last]

Haunted -- Chuck Palahniuk

Haunted -- Chuck Palahniuk

Hells yes. Especially the 'guts' story. Nasty shit... Literally

Lolita - Nabakov.

Lol i came into recommend Chuck Palanuik's short story Guts ( http://www.seizureandy.com/stuff/guts.html)

but since everyone already recommended him, id have to say. a brave new world really creeped me out (it could be because i 'read' the audio book and everytime a girl talked this man would talk like a girl) some spooky shit.

Gadsby is just odd. Writing a book without the letter "e" is quite the accomplishment.

I found it to be horribly overrated and mediocre at best :|

You should check out Eunoia by Christian Bok.

Watch Out - Joseph Suglia. It's hilarious.

Thank you everyone for the suggestions. I've looked up a couple books/series/trilogies and there's some good stuff here! :biggrin:

Might be a little high-school for you, but Perks of Being a Wallflower is pretty fucking weird.

Perks of Being a Wallflower is a great book.

So is Go Ask Alice.

[lostmyface]

What's Slaughter House Five?

[Azure]

What's Slaughter House Five?

A novel by Kurt Vonnegut detailing the experience of a soldier in WW2 who time travels and shit. I had to read it recently for English class. It's an amazingly well written book once you get into it, and used to the irregular vocabulary and writing style.

That's neat! I like books like that. One of my favorite english class book assignments though was Kindred by Octavia Buttler. It's written about a modern day black woman who travels back in time (multiple times) to the slave era and has to protect her blood line. Basically she has to make sure her great great (et cetera...) grandmother is born like she's supposed to. It's really good.

Try 120 Days of Sodom by Marquis de Sade.

I think I've heard of that before. What's it about?

[Silverfuck]

Er...well it's basically about these libertines who have this castle and they fill it up with young children and other prisoners and have these orgies that get progressively more fucked up and disgusting and in the end I think they rape and kill them all in really vile ways...you said you wanted fucked up, though.

[Lao Tzu]

Oh bloody hell I read the whole thing and my insides hurt. I'm never going to go swimming or eat a carrot again.

Perks of Being a Wallflower is a great book.
