	Lanark by Alasdair Gray
		Lanark is an unusual book, employing techniques seldom used by other authors, although parallels have been drawn with literary greats such as Dante and Blake.
		This section of Lanark is very much autobiographical, mirroring numerous events in Gray's life such as his evacuation during the war to Perthsire, the occasion of a dance at the Glasgow School of Art, and Gray's continuing health problems with asthma and eczema.
		In book three, Lanark cannot remember his past, and so in the prologue (at the end of book three) Lanark asks an oracle to tell him who he is, with the oracle stating he will tell him about Duncan Thaw.
