    The Book of Revelation?

    No.

    You’re not gonna believe it, when you find out what it is. It doesn’t seem to “go” with the book at all.

    It’s a classic. A weird creepy unclassifiable classic.

    I looked it up but I won’t spoil it. It definitely does not fit with the rest of the book, at least in my mind’s eye.

    It’s one of my favorite books. I probably read it once a year.

    Clue:

    This book is routinely referred to as one of the greatest novels ever written. It’s BIZARRE, and ahead of its time … but it’s also timeless. You can’t pin it down. It’s bleak, it’s completely sexy, it’s tragic, it’s terrifying … and there is a way bizarre little cross-dressing incident smack in the middle of it.

    I don’t care what anyone else says – novels don’t get much better than this one.
