Deleuze is so overrated(although I am personally biased against everything that came out and was concurrent with Mai 68 in general). I don't know if you read it in French, but in French the only "French Theorist" worse than Deleuze/Guattari is Baudrillar(for how bad the concepts are).
IMO the most interesting one from that era is Clouscard.

Did you read Deleuze's Logique de la sensation?
Yes I read him in french. Unfamiliar with Clouscard. Not a fan of Baudrillar either.

From Deleuze, I read:
- L'Anti-Oedipe + Mille Plateaux
- Logique du sens
- Le Bergsonisme
- The 2 books on Nietzsche(these IMO are his best work)
Didn't get around to Logique de la Sensation, couldn't stomach him after the "Capitalisme/schizophrénie" duo.
I find it incredibly satisfying to stretch my brain with books that are inaccessible on the first read.
