Assuming that trashy Harlequin romances and other supermarket-tier crap doesn't count as real literature (because it doesn't), I'd say Finnegan's Wake, but only because I don't understand it and I'm a vindictive bitch. I'm honestly pretty sure it was intended as a prank on the literate population that Joyce cooked up because he knew he was nearing the end of his life.
