None of these books are even that bad, and if these are truly the worst you've read then I envy you.

The real answer is George Bataille's Story of the Eye. It's an absolutely terrible piss fetish story filled with hamfisted references to other people's ideas (mostly Freud).
Do any of these references expand or reframe these ideas in an interesting way? No. They are literally just references.
>"broo... the young matador killed the old bull and gave the chick its balls... but then the younger bull killed the matador by stabbing him through HIS balls... wowzers :0 XD"
>"omg, they had sex at the Don Juan church????" XD XD XD ZOMG!1!!
And that isn't even getting into the actual storytelling; it's complete dog shit. Everything that happens on this book is a series of events with very little continuity. There is zero setup or payoff at any point in the story, which causes this 50 page novella full of absurd sex fantasies to be astoundingly dull.

In short, it's Rogue One for midwits; bad storytelling kept afloat by references to things you already know.
