Woodstock Rising

Take a walk through a time of peace, love and rock 'n roll as Tom Wayman reads from and signs his latest work, Woodstock Rising. Come out to meet Tom and hear how his 25th book differs from his others.

It's late 1969 and Communist China has successfully launched its first satellite. Inspired by this feat, a group of college students in Laguna Beach, California, set out to put their own satellite into orbit in homage to the recent Woodstock Festival. An extraordinary black comedy shot full of the social and political issues of the time, Woodstock Rising is a coming-of-age tale couched in free love, rock anthems, and revolution as well as a chronicle of an era whose causes continue to speak to us.
