Probably some short story I read in high school but from what I can remember the first one that came to mind is Blood Meridian

Clockwork Orange

"The teachings of Don Juan" by Carlos Castaneda. Read it in highschool and it put me off psychedelics for more than two decades.

Fanged Noumena by Nick Land

Cyclonopedia by Reza Negarestani

Both are a naked lunch level mindfuck. Don't treat it as a book, but rather as a stream of consciousness on the acid trip. Don't try to make any sense, just ride the wave.

Diaspora by Greg Egan, it's one of the best thought out take on what a post human society could look like. Lots of amazing ideas in the book.

anarcho-syndicalism theory and practice by rudolf rocker, it was let's say enligthening, I was already an anarchist before reading it, but now I'm an anarcho-syndicalist

currently reading networking in the rust programming language btw

Assisted Living (aka Äldreomsorgen i Övre Kågedalen) by Nikanor Teratologen. It's a very bleak and horrible story about a boy who is in an incestuous relationship with his nazi philosopher grandfather. Together the go around committing murder, rape, and other crimes, while relating everything to obscure authors and texts. The original is written entirely in a swedish dialect which is hard to understand, and it didn't translate that well into other languages I think. Despite all this, it is very well written and has won prizes and been made into a play and radio reading etc.

Wildest as in..?

I finished reading Maldita Guerra, which is the current de facto book detailing the Paraguay War (1864-1870). Francisco Solano López, Paraguay's dictator at the time, is possibly the worst thing to have happened to the country. The fucking psycho established a cult of personality (saint figures in churches were removed to put photos of him), the only newspaper allowed to print was always cheering on how great and perfect he was, plus a secret police to ensure nobody would dare rise up against him. Oh, and the population was incentivized to denounce anyone that didn't show enough love for the president.

To make matters worse, there was no real justice system. If you were accused of treason or conspiracy, you were as good as dead, no recourse. Oh, and López' head was deep inside his own ass, any war reports that showed difficulties or stated losses from the Paraguayan army were rebuked and the person could end up dead for giving the bad news. The fucking asshole willfully ignored facts while giving orders to his army. He could've wiped the Triple Alliance's forces when they began the counterattack, but his "strategic genius" was composed of himself and nobody else.

Der Prozess (1915) by Franz Kafka, it still is relevant today.

The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami just a magnificent read, you probably couldn’t go wrong with any of his works.

Depends in what way you mean 'wild.' Crazy even psychedelic, but nonetheless benign? Or are we including disturbing?

Kafkas famous book, I think the title is the transformation.

Also Orson Wells about the civil war in Spain. This was not fiction, but it points out so much real life non sense and lies that had my head spinning for most of the book.

Jitterbug perfume was out there.

Kitchen Confidential.

Sadly, Porn

I don't know how to describe it, expect to be confused and offended and gaslit.

A long way gone by Ishmael Beah was pretty dark. Story of a boy soldier from Sierra Leone explaining how you get forced into it and the terrible things they did.

The multiorgasmic man.
