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 Guriel's acclaimed \u003cem\u003eForgotten Work\u003c\/em\u003e, which the \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e called \"unlikely, audacious, and ingenious,\" and written in rhyming couplets, \u003cem\u003eThe Full-Moon Whaling Chronicles\u003c\/em\u003e cuts between Kaye's quest, chapters from the YA novel, and guerilla works of fanfic in a visionary verse novel destined to draw its own cult following.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJason Guriel\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003cem\u003eOn Browsing\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003ci\u003eForgotten Work, \u003c\/i\u003eand other books.
