>Lanark by Alasdair Gray

Interesting...I was gonna suggest the very same thing.  Bear in mind, tho', 
that Mr. Gray - encountered in the book as the author, Nastler - is very 
reluctant to have 'Lanark' regarded as science fiction.  He shouts 
indignantly that _he_ is writing about _real people_...

If you really want to spend some money on it, Bloomsbury have issued a 20th 
Anniversary edition; a boxed set with all four volumes as an individual 
book.  £35.00:

Should gain in value over the years...
