Better than Seattle! Love this book! Captures word for word the times living in Iowa City in the late 1980's and describes perfectly the wonderful music scene that existed there then (way before Seattle!) and still thrives today!(see Ed Gray or HOTT!)If possible buy the kindl
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. The publisher, The Foundry: A Literary Collective, is a small coop press using CreateSpace for fulfillment and delivery of this, its first title. 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. 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. Signal to Noise is a nominee for the Pushcart Press Editors Choice Book Award.
