Tilting the Balance by Harry Turtledove.
Nothing to do with the invasion, but one of the lead characters was being cheated on by his missus and so was I when I was reading it. It is so well written that I really struggled to read his chapters without becoming deeply melancholy.

And the Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks. There is a lot of raping and killing in those books. A lot.
If we include comic books, there's From Hell by Alan Moore and Eddie Cambell. Alan Moore nearly made Neil Gaiman throw up by describing a passage.
For books that haven't been mentioned yet, there's Capitalism and Freedom. It only takes about 20 pages for Milton Freidman to say that he supports capitalism because the buyer doesn't know if the product came from foreign slave labor. 80 pages later, he writes that doctors shouldn't need official certificates to practice any branch of medicine.
