A love story of sorts set in a distant future. The narrator of the novel is captain of an interstellar ship ferrying passengers from a complex sybaritic culture. He writes in an elegant farrago of various European languages, though Spinrad makes sure an English monoglot will have no trouble. The other main character is the ship's pilot, who is in love with the void. A difficult, in parts unsuccessful, but overall brilliant, tragic, funny novel about sex, love, and transcendence.
Nominated for the Nebula and Locus awards.
