Dhalgren by Samuel R. Delany

Description: Bellona is a city at the dead center of the United States. Something has happened there…. The population has fled. Madmen and criminals wander the streets. Strange portents appear in the cloud-covered sky. And into this disaster zone comes a young man–poet, lover, and adventurer–known only as the Kid. Tackling questions of race, gender, and sexuality, Dhalgren is a literary marvel and groundbreaking work of American magical realism.

It's also a literary necker cube.

Reprint of a 1975 novel. The 3rd Vintage printing (or later) is the most accurate rendering of the text of Dhalgren ever published.
