"Set this House in Order" by Matt Ruff is a novel about two multiple
personalities who meet and (sorta) fall in love. It is quirky and
not necessarily psychologically accurate - but it does give some
insights into what having MPD might be like. Plus, its just fun....
(great author in general, BTW - if you have quirky tastes)
