Flowers for Algernon. The structure of the novel IS the devastation. You can see what's coming and can't stop it.
A Little Life. I cannot discuss the ending without becoming upset. That's either a flaw or a testament to how deeply it works.
The Road. Two characters, no names, no future, just love making survival possible. I finished it at 2am and couldn't sleep.
