We're Getting On (Flatmancrooked) A launch party for the new novel by James Kaelan, We're Getting On! This is the kickoff for a "zero-emissions book tour," on which the author will be touring from Los Angeles to Vancouver, all on bicycle.  The book is also biodegradable, and the cover is made out of a specialty paper that contains spruce tree seeds. You can plant the book and it becomes, literally, the very thing books are made of. "James Kaelan is a fine, intelligent writer. We’re Getting On is so elegantly and imaginatively written that it should be a significant debut.” --Ha Jin James Kaelan is the author of the novel We're Getting On, which grows into a tree, and which he's touring this summer by bicycle. When he isn't writing or training, he teaches at Pepperdine University and writes criticism for TheMillions.com. His short fiction has appeared in Best New Writing, Monkeybicycle, Avery, and Opium, amongst others.
