Nebula Award Finalist: Reality has come unglued and a mad civilization takes root in Bellona, in this science fiction classic. A young halfNative American known as the Kid has hitchhiked from Mexico to the midwestern city Bellonaonly something is wrong there . . . In Bellona, the shattered city, a nameless cataclysm has left reality unhinged.

Into this desperate metropolis steps the Kid, his fist wrapped in razor-sharp knives, to write, to love, to wound. So begins Dhalgren, Samuel R. Delany's masterwork, which in 1975 opened a new door for what science fiction could mean.

A labyrinth of a novel, it raises questions about race, sexuality, identity, and art, but gives no easy answers, in a city that reshapes itself with each step you take . . . This ebook features an illustrated biography of Samuel R.

Delany including rare images from his early career.
