When I was a boy, I liked to go to the pool with goggles and go underwater to stare at the girls' butts and pussies. It was nice because they couldn't really catch you doing it.

Céline
learned French just to read his pamphlets
his novels are amazing and his pamphlets are some of the most bizarre combination of schizo shit posting and pretty writing
also Kafka but only when you imagine him reading his stuff to you sperging out, constantly losing his shit and giggling every now and then

I'm Argentinian and I'm pretty biased with this.
Borges (short stories + essays, it gives you this sensation likes your brain is expanding I'm not kidding, never read his poetry so I don't know about that)
Sabato (novels + essays paints a spot on picture on the condition of the modern man, also his interviews are pretty kino, there are a lot on yt)
Pizarnik (poetry + diary)
I agree on Kafka, I've read some of his diaries entries and that man was a genius.
Hesse's essays add a lot of depth to his fiction, which never dissapoint.

Yeah, that's why you should read him. To get those stupid ideas out of you.
Read Abaddon, there he explains his understanding of literature.

I've found that Thomas Bernhards' books are very repetitive but very readable nonetheless. They kinda lull you into this prose of despair.
