Quentin Tarantino, the famous and successful director, reported having signed a two-books deal with Harper Collins – a novelisation of his latest cinematographic success “Once upon a time in Hollywood” and “Cinema Speculation”, a non-fiction essay. The first book will be published in Summer 2021, and it tells the fabulous story of Rick Dalton and his stunt Cliff Booth. Not only has the novel added interesting and intriguing details about the main characters, but it has a look both forwards and backwards in their lives. Tarantino claimed that film novelisations have been his first adult readings while growing up, and they deeply influenced him. The experience has excited him, especially creating the characters’ backgrounds, and the author hopes his work will contribute to give importance to an often marginalised literary sub-genre. “Cinema Speculation” is Tarantino’s second work, and it focuses on the 1970s film culture, presenting a series of essays, reviews, and personal writings of the director. The non-fiction book release date has not yet been communicated.
The wait has already started; Tarantino is an amazing master storyteller who bravely tried a new form of narrative to explore his characters further – a demonstration that different worlds – cinema and literature – can efficiently sit alongside. Links: Harper Collins Press Release
