I'm really glad I found this website! I've been trying to recall this book for years now and I really hope this community could help me.
The part that stuck with me from this sci-fi book was the ending; the hero protagonist, in a bid to escape being found, ended up in a community whereby everyone had sealed/wired themselves into these jet-black, lobster like spacesuits. These lobster suits were somehow entirely self-contained and enabled them to sit on the outside of a skeletal, framework only spaceship and amplify their senses so that they could listen to the hiss, crackle, pop of the planets and stars.
I believe this novel was written in the 80's or 90's, but that simply a guess.
Hopefully, this sounds familiar to someone out there.
