Hey /lit/, I'm looking for something that fits into the criteria of gritty, dark Americana that has a strong sense of place (exactly where that is doesn't matter, could be Alaska or the South) and involves the seedier, decayed elements of people that are reflected in the surroundings. I'm well-familiar with major southern gothic writers, and while I like that style, I'm looking for something a little more contemporary, preferably 20th century. Thanks in advance.

Junky by Bill Burroughs is what came to my mind. Although it's probably not exactly what you're looking for.
