Hollywood, Ending
Goodreads
John Green publishing house: Random House Large Print 2026 - 9
A behind-the-scenes Hollywood love story that brilliantly confronts the private cost of a public life For rising young actors Kai Laramie and Juniper Castillo, being cast in the buzzy biopic Andy Warhol Never Gets Old is the opportunity they’ve been waiting for. They’re on the verge of breaking out, and maybe even falling in love. Soon the movie is blowing up and so are their lives—in exciting but also terrifying ways. John Green artfully blends a behind-the-scenes Hollywood love story with an unflinching examination of the insatiable attention economy. Told through dual points of view, the novel follows Kai and Juniper from their first days on location to the movie’s premiere, brilliantly juxtaposing their story with the on-screen study of Warhol’s life at the dawn of celebrity culture. Hollywood, Ending is a deeply observed novel about the tension between a public and a private life, and finding your safe someone to hold onto. Tender, heartbreaking, and shrewdly funny, this is a story as only Green can tell it.

Prodotti artificiali come le bevande gassate, specie naturali le cui abitudini sono state irrimediabilmente modificate dall'azione umana, fenomeni che influenzano l'umanità come la cometa di le recensioni dell'autore compongono una vera e propria sinfonia, in un libro complesso e ricco di dettagli. Il talento di John Green per raccontare storie risplende più che mai e ci porta a guardare con occhi diversi il nostro presente e il mondo che ci circonda.

John became fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequities that allow this curable, preventable infectious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year.
