John Green explores fame and the attention economy through two young actors in his first adult novel in nearly a decade, releasing Sept. 22 from Dutton Books.
- On Tuesday, author John Green announced his new novel, Hollywood, Ending, marking his first book in nearly 10 years and a shift toward adult fiction.
- Green, 48, previously authored young adult favorites like The Fault in Our Stars and Looking for Alaska; during a 2024 Stanford University appearance, he said he felt more "emotionally and intellectually" distant from that age group.
- According to Dutton, the story "centers on two young actors and how their lives change through their roles in the biopic Andy Warhol Never Gets Old," while exploring love and loss.
- Dutton Books, a Penguin Random House imprint, will release the novel on Sept. 22, following his 2017 release, Turtles All the Way Down.
- Green described the book as navigating "strange, complicated exchanges of attention and trauma" of the social internet, a phenomenon he noted is "no longer reserved for movie stars alone.
