I once tried to read _Dhalgren_; couldn't finish it.

As it happens, Delany was a guest this year at I-CON and I attended
one of his panels and watched a fair bit of the Delany movie; both
covered _Dhalgren_ at some length.

I won't give any speciously specific quotes since I wasn't especially
interested in the comments on _Dhalgren_, but I gathered that one
shouldn't look too hard for answers in it - Delany is definitely not
Wolfe and the significance of many of the allusions and themes is
minimal.
