1984 and Fahrenhiet 451 were very disturbing books. But I loved them.
The Lord of the Flies, Heart of Darkness (random note: the movie "Apocalypse, Now" was inspired by this book) and A Clockwork Orange were disturbing books that I'm not sure if I liked or not...

Eating the Cheshire Cat was a disturbing book but only because it's not so far fetched. I can believe some of that actually happening, and that's frightening.

Speaking of Sylvia Plath, has anyone ever read any of her husband's (Ted Hughes) poetry? Specifically the collection entitled "Crow." Those are some seriously disturbing poems.
