Have anyone else read the Patrick Melrose saga by Edward St. Aubyn? I just finished the fifth and final book and found them awesome. The largely autobiographical series starts out in "Never Mind" with the five year old Patrick Melrose adjusting to his psychopathic father and his absent mother. Halfway through the book, Patric is raped by his father and the later books are largely about how he deals with this childhood, trying to come to terms with it and stop the vicious cycle from destroying his two sons as well. They are very witty and very viscous in describing the people, most of whom are caricatures.
