It's 2070. Newfoundland has vanished, Tokyo is a new Venice, and many people have retreated to "bonsai housing": hives that compress matter in a world that's losing ground to rising tides. Enter Kaye, an English literature student searching for the reclusive author of a YA classic--a beloved novel about teenage werewolves sailing to a fabled sea monster's nest. Kaye's quest will intersect with obsessive fan subcultures, corporate conspiracies, flying gondolas, an anthropomorphic stove, and the molecular limits of reality itself. Set in the same world as Jason Guriel's critically acclaimed verse novel Forgotten Work, which the New York Times called "unlikely, audacious, and ingenious," and written in virtuosic rhyming couplets, The Full-Moon Whaling Chronicles cuts between Kaye's quest, chapters from the YA novel, and guerilla works of fanfic in a genetically modified monsterpiece: a visionary verse novel destined to draw its own cult-following."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 650 0 $a Quests (Expeditions) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a College students $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Authors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Young adult literature $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Cults $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Whaling ships $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Future, The $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION / Science Fiction / Cyberpunk. $2 bisacsh 655 0 $a Dystopian fiction. 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Novels in verse. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Guriel, Jason, 1978- $t Full-moon whaling chronicles. $d Windsor, Ontario : Biblioasis, 2023 $z 9781771965521 $z 9781771965521 $w (OCoLC)1350747884 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231108010540.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=831F0DE27E0411EE85718D4F22ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
