Hey /lit/ I'm looking for books that are like early Chuck Palahniuk and the works of Bret Easton Ellis.
Wikipedia says that those are transgressive authors but the other well known ones that are listed like Irvine Welsh are not my cup of tea.
Any recomendations? One of those pics with a bunch of book covers will be welcome.
Bump
One last bump.
Michel houellebecq - elementary particles, whatever
Elliot Rodger - my twisted world
Maybe James ellroy - American tabloid and its sequels
Maybe jay McInerney - bright lights big city, and others
I assume you mean edgy young male literature that we all like but are then pressured out of reading and talking about because we're supposed to give a fuck about 19th century nobility soap operas or 20th century new York pseudo intellectual pomo faggots.

I meant funny books about psychotic people.
Or psychotic books about funny people.
Thanks for the books.

The Dice Man is probably up your street.
You could try Vidal's Myra Breckinridge too, which is the original OPpic

John Dies at the End and the sequel. A third book is coming out that I'm stoked for.
Sick City by Tony O'Neill
Bangkok 8 by Burdett, sorta. It has that same semi-surreal, monotone tone throughout the book. I really enjoyed it.
Horns, by Joe Hill
David Benioff books, City of Thieves is my favorite, but there are some that fit what you're looking for better.
Lockpick Pornography
Liquor by Poppy Z Brite
Smokescreen by Robert Sabbag
There are probably more that I can't think of right at the moment.
