A mention here on 12.16.15, from Rick Moody ~ "I have been reading a new manuscript by Steve Erickson, Shadowbahn, (great title) that is immensely promising."

>4 theaelizabet: Me too! But the wait will be slightly longer than originally anticipated. Shadowbahn is now scheduled for release in Feb. 2017 from Blue Rider Press, an imprint of Penguin.

Here's a description of the novel from Liepman Ag Literary Agency

. . .The Twin Towers have mysteriously appeared in the Dakota Badlands. . .

Tens of thousands converge on what one newsmagazine calls the “American Stonehenge,” as strange musical visions manifest themselves in a kind of sonic rorschach. Living alone inside the South Tower is Jesse Garon Presley (who happens to be Elvis’s twin brother) who watches the North Tower for signs of life — when the tower’s “whole point...is its emptiness” — and is haunted by the voice in his head of another America, where his despised, stillborn twin survived in his place and became the most famous singer of all time.
