This book I read the first/second chapters as a kid, and can not for the life of me remember the name of it. All I remember is it is in the future (duh) and people live in glass buildings so everyone can see in or out and 2 men shared the same wife. What the heck! Did I dream this or is it a real book? Thanks.

It doesn't really sound like a dream.

"Wine of the Dreamers" by John D. MacDonald?

No, really! That is the name of the book.

In what decade were you a kid? 70's? 80's? 90's?
A general time span would help.

It would of been in the late 1970's early 1980's, also I think everyone was bald, and know I wasnt intermixing THX1344? movie with this book. I think it was also political so I got restless, with the A.D.H.D.-now it sounds cool. I will check the discriptions of these suggested titles.

I looked up the books on line, it looks like "The World Inside" is the one but I also liked the others so I ordered them all from the library. The Heinlein one looks even cooler. TMP rules.
