Postmodernism meets music mash-up, remixing and collage in this
late-'80s coming-of-age story, an alt-underground music
extravaganza that repeatedly breaks the traditional form of the
novel. As Connor submerges into the underground music scene, he is
enthralled by an industrial/hardcore music legend who goes by the
handle "The Siren." Their otherworldly comingling alters them, a
physical transmogrification that takes hold whenever they are
intimate. Music is woven into the text, as lyrics interplay with
the storyline in this hybrid of fabulism, alternative and
industrial music, and fiction, a tour of the underground music
scene of the mid- to late '80s in Iowa City and beyond. The
publisher, The Foundry: A Literary Collective, is a small coop
press using CreateSpace for fulfillment and delivery of this, its
first title. Signal to Noise is a nominee for the Pushcart Press
Editors Choice Book Award.
