Steve Erickson is the author of ten novels — including DAYS BETWEEN STATIONS, TOURS OF THE BLACK CLOCK, ZEROVILLE and SHADOWBAHN — and three nonfiction works. His books have appeared on best-of-the-year lists in Newsweek, the Washington Post BookWorld, the Los Angeles Times, the Village Voice, the Believer, and the New York Times Book Review. Considered a writer's writer, he has been called "a maximal visionary" (Rick Moody), "a brilliantly imaginative novelist of the utmost seriousness and grace" (William Gibson), "one of the few American novelists open to the truly visionary" (Brian Evenson), "as unique and vital and pure a voice as American fiction has produced" (Jonathan Lethem), and "one of America's greatest living novelists" (Dana Spiotta). In 2021 the University Press of Mississippi issued CONVERSATIONS WITH STEVE ERICKSON as part of a series that includes William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, James Baldwin, William S. Burroughs and Toni Morrison, proclaiming Erickson "a subterranean literary figure...[whose] dream-fueled blend of European modernism, American pulp and paranoid late-century postmodernism makes him essential to an appreciation of the last 40 years of American fiction." Erickson was founding editor of the literary journal Black Clock and presently is a Distinguished Professor at the University of California, Riverside; he also writes about film, television and music for Los Angeles magazine. He has received the American Academy of Arts and Letters' award in literature, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and the Lannan Lifetime Achievement Award.
