Delany has produced a novel " to stand with the best American fiction of the 1970s" (Jonathan Lethem). 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.
