In an afterward to The Book of Skulls, Robert Silverberg discusses whether or not it is a science fiction novel. Despite the fact that it was nominated for both the Hugo and Nebula awards, it was for me 'mainstream fiction' - excellent mainstream fiction. I have no idea if this book was on the New York Times best seller list in 1972, but it certainly should have been, genre or not. Silverberg is a world-class author.
