Using the novel as inspiration, songwriter Eric Maring wrote a musical response to the novel. Entitled The Line, the acoustic-rock musical uses the varied notion of lines in our world to echo Laxer’s examination of humans, praising our ability and need to explore our world and ask questions, especially regarding our relationship to our planet, our religions, ourselves. The music, at turns serious, light, joyous, exuberant, and brooding, was conceived of with a staged multi-media musical performance in mind. The Line CD will be included inside the novel.
