i started looking to movies for good authors ...
the dude irvine welsh (trainspotting) writes dark, funny , london shit.
as well as check palahniuk (fight club) ...in his pen lay DIARY and INVISIBLE MONSTERS which were disturbing and upsetting...but lawd.
if you peeps are eager to dabble in some older stuff try RAY BRADBURY & KURT VONNEGUT (science fiction, but funny...liquorice twisty science fiction)
Will up links for free ebooks in a moment.
