Pea Soup vomit is so nasty.

For the full effect swing by the movie of the same title too.
Beren:
No book has ever disturbed me quite like Clockwork Orange. Reading it all in one sitting + the wonderful writing + the absolutely gut wrenching ideas, hurts.
In retrospect, Lolita is exceedingly disturbing. It's been my favourite book since I first read it a good few years ago though, so some of that seems to have faded for me.
pilsner:
Seriously, are the books ahead of The Road actually creepier? I haven't read them, but the thought of a book more disturbing than The Road makes me want to induce concussions until I'm no longer literate.
KvP:
Books ahead of The Road? Do you mean McCarthy books made before The Road? Some of them, yeah. Blood Meridian's Judge is one of the more terrifying literary creations I've come across, and the book itself is darker and more brutal than The Road. There's also Anton Chighur from Old Country. McCarthy has a thing for unstoppable evil.
