Samuel R. Delany
In Dhalgren, perhaps one of the most profound and best-selling science fiction novels of all time, Samuel R. Delany has produced a novel that rivals the best American fiction of the 1970s.
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 - a poet, a lover, and an adventurer - known only as the Kid.
Tackling questions of race, gender, and sexuality, Dhalgren is a literary marvel and a groundbreaking work of American magical realism.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. It is experimental literature that has worn the test of time. If we shall fall for the fallacy of credentialism, Umberto Eco, Theodore Sturgeon, David Bowie, endorse this delicate fragile, imperfect yet bold unabashed and honest work.If it ain't for you then you don't have a place in Bellona.Go somewhere else.As for the rest of us, you are welcome here.Look, you'll know right away if this is not for you. Don't expect anything from Dhalgren. It is more suggestive than expressive. If you expect anything, be prepared for disappointment.However, if you take it as it comes, if you say yes, you are in for a treat. This is something unlike anything that came before it.What was one of the most memorable moments of Dhalgren?
Sex with trees, the banality of prose. The beauty of it.What about Stefan Rudnicki’s performance did you like?
His deep cadence plays well with the essence of this peculiar and noteworth work..If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
What you see is incomparable to what you think.Any additional comments?
This is a landmark work that while imperfect, its contrivances suggests so much it must not be overlooked.All you have to do it let it.Yeasayers say yes. Naysayers say no.

To enjoy this book you have to understand that:
The author purposefully frustrates the reader to create a psychological effect. As you experience the book, you come to enjoy these frustrations and understand their purpose. You also understand that your frustration is part of the story, intentional, and is actually GOOD writing, not bad writing or the author doing something in error.
This book is not action filled. It is about relationships, subtlety, and other such things.
This book legitimately plays out the reality of a how an inner city American community might function in response to an apocalyptic event.
The book is a work of art in the way of mastering show don't tell.
Know that the author is a person of color and this was written in the late 60's, so the radicalized language is a product of it's time. Also, the author specifically intended to name people of color at the time because science fiction was completely white washed.
CW: rape, underage sex, racialized violence
Easily one of my favorite books of all time

Would you try another book from Samuel R. Delany and/or Stefan Rudnicki?
Samuel R Delany's Sci-Fi books are great. However Dhalgren is not really a sci-fi book. It is an exploration of experimental prose and poetry. Don't get me wrong, there are moments of genius in the chaos.What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
There are a handful of powerful scenes in the book that are highly realistic. In fact, it is believed that some of the content has been adapted from Delany's own personal experiences. This would not be surprising.The weakest aspect of Dhalgren is it's length. If the book was cut in half, it would be more mainstream.Any additional comments?
Overall Dhalgren is worth your time if you are a general lover of the written word, who is looking for something a little bit different, maybe even slightly insane.Not for casual readers
