Much as his novel of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood both amplified and altered the narrative of the film, The Adventures of Cliff Booth offers Tarantino’s own creative vision for this story in novel form, in ways that both delight and surprise.
“Can’t wait for audiences to see and read Cliff Booth’s further adventures,” said Quentin Tarantino.
One of the most acclaimed living American filmmakers, Tarantino has in recent years pivoted to book writing including his celebrated 2022 work of nonfiction on 1970’s film, the bestselling CINEMA SPECULATION. Tarantino’s editor at Harper, Vice President and Executive Editor Noah Eaker, acquired North American rights to THE ADVENTURES OF CLIFF BOOTH from William Morris Endeavor. The novel will be published simultaneously in the UK by Weidenfeld & Nicolson.
