What are some certified noided books?

Fourth Mansions by R A Lafferty is incredibly eye opening and prophetic.

These books prepared me very well for Pynchon as a teenager. An obvious suggestion would be Gravity's Rainbow. But RAW's other fiction books are well worth reading. Or Prometheus Rising if you want to use RAW mental technology to reprogram your brain

I don't know, I just know the book as it is published is significantly shorter than his entire Exegesis corpus. (It's 3k pages vs like 40k pages or summat crazy like that.)
The fact that it says "edited" on the cover should have given you a clue.

VALIS is a cognitohazard. I felt deeply uneasy whilst reading that book, and I'm a big Dickhead. It's disturbing on a spiritual level.
