A poly fiction genre?

We recently saw the great movie Carol, based on the 1952 romance novel by Patricia Highsmith, first published under the pseudonym "Claire Morgan". The Price of Salt was a mold breaker in the genres lesbian literature and gay fiction.

I know there are some great poly memoirs out like The Game Changer by Franklin Veaux and Gracie X's great book Wide Open. There is even the fantastic young adult book Love You Two by Maria Pallotta-Chiarolli.

Is there a genre of Poly Literature, or Poly Fiction? Have there been any good intentional romance books written about relationships that work that are outside the mononormative mold?

I know there are fantastic books in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy mold like Heinlen's classic Stranger in a Strange Land.

I am especially interested in contemporary adult fiction books featuring healthy and working polyamorous relationships. Any suggestions?
