Another is 'A Clockwork Orange'. The extreme violence and the dystopian society it presents, along with the 'treatment' of the main character, are quite disturbing. The book makes you question the nature of free will and the lengths society can go to in controlling deviance.

'Lolita' is also considered disturbing. The story involves an older man's inappropriate and immoral obsession with a young girl. The relationship is complex and wrong, and the novel's exploration of this taboo topic makes it disturbing for many readers.

One example could be 'The Catcher in the Rye'. Holden Caulfield's angst and his encounters in a rather seedy adult world can be disturbing to some. His alienation and disillusionment are palpable throughout the novel.
