I felt like this during the first chapter of John Hawkes' The Lime Twig, felt very reminiscent of The Sound and the Fury with a darker tone. His book The Cannibal would also fit here. I have not read more by him but I want to.

Hawkes in general is one of my holy grails - I've been aware of him for years but for some reason his books are obscenely hard to get hold of in the UK.
