James Kaelan, WE'RE GETTING ON, and the Zero Emissions Book Project

Start: Fri, 07/16/2010 - 6:30pm

End: Fri, 07/16/2010 - 7:30pm

Green Apple Books is thrilled to be a stop on James Kaelan's 1900 mile bike tour to promote his new book, We're Getting On. The first edition of the book, published by Flatmancrooked Press, is 100% green, recycled, and post-consumer. But that's not all: the covers are even made of seed paper that, upon burial, germinate and grow into birch trees, allowing the book to offset its own carbon footprint ten times over. Fittingly, We're Getting On is a series of interconnected short stories and novellas which explore youth, dissolution, the impact technology has on the modern world, and what happens when one tries to live completely off the grid.
Don't miss this revolutionary moment in publishing as James Kaelan stops his bicycle in Green Apple's Granny Smith room to read from, discuss, and sign copies of this amazing new work. Call the store today to reserve your copy in advance.

Book of the Month

I Curse the River of Time

Each month, we present a new book that we enthusiastically recommend. Really enthusiastically recommend. This month's choice is again endorsed by multiple Green Applers. Buy it now and thank us later. Here's Molly's "shelf-talker."

"This novel caught and held me for an immersive three days of reading. It takes place in roughly that span of time in a journey through Norway and through memories, told via the monologue of a man whose most basic truths are crumbling around him. In his signature hauntingly precise prose and dreamlike narrative structure, Petterson subtly unfolds multiple stories that could have easily fallen to cliches (divorce, familial class struggles, cancer) in a unique, poignant, and inexplicably hopeful way. As with most books I love, when I finished this one I felt something like relief - not that it was over, but that it exists."--MP
