But, in your example, [% book %] is not a book object, it's your book 
class.

Going back to your original example, you want to rework it like so:

[% USE book_class = Class("MyLibrary::Book") %]
[% SET book = book_class.retrieve("99") %] # or something

Then you can work with your book object.

But you didn't have an object, just a handy class proxy.
