Forthcoming Civil War Novel? ("Mason-Dixon Line")

[Alex Colter]

So I have heard from time to time whispers of a forthcoming Civil War novel
by Mr. Pynchon, and at one point concluded it was an April Fools joke just
before the release of Against the Day.
However, I was recently reading the chapter on Pynchon in Professor Bloom's
collection on 'Novels and Novelists', where, after dissecting The Story of
Byron the Bulb, he briefly mentions a forthcoming novel entitl'd
"Mason-Dixon Line".
Anyone know anything else about this?

Given the current situation in America, I feel there could not be a more
appropriate time...?
