The
author of such favorites for young people as “The Fault in Our
Stars” and “Looking for Alaska” has written a story about
celebrity and the attention economy, “Hollywood, Ending.” Dutton
Books, a Penguin Random House imprint, will release the novel on
Sept. 22.
According to Dutton, “Hollywood, Ending” centers on two young
actors and how their lives change through their roles in the
biopic “Andy Warhol Never Gets Old.”
“It’s a book about navigating love and loss all while
participating in the strange, complicated exchanges of attention
and trauma of the social internet that has become something no
longer reserved for movie stars alone,” Green said in a
statement released Tuesday.
His most recent novel, “Turtles All the Way Down,” came out in
2017.
During an appearance at Stanford University in 2024, Green said
he expected to be moving away from young adult fiction,
explaining that he felt more “emotionally and intellectually”
distant from the age group.
The 48-year-old author, whose novels have sold millions of
copies, knows a few things about fame, and the movie industry.
“The Fault in Our Stars” and “Paper Towns” are among his works
that have been adapted into films.
