1. Closer by Dennis Cooper
"Closer" is a provocative and unsettling novel that delves into the lives of a group of teenagers in Los Angeles who are navigating a world filled with nihilism and desensitization. The narrative centers around George Miles, a vulnerable and impressionable young man whose emotional detachment and search for meaning become the focal point around which other characters orbit. Through a series of fragmented and often disturbing interactions, the novel explores themes of obsession, love, and the extremes to which alienation and the quest for connection can drive human behavior. The book is noted for its stark, minimalist style and its unflinching approach to controversial subject matter.
