Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

by Quentin Tarantino

Description

Set against the sun-drenched backdrop of 1969 Los Angeles, this richly atmospheric novel follows fading television star Rick Dalton and his loyal stunt double, Cliff Booth, as they navigate Hollywood’s shifting cultural landscape. Their intertwined lives bring them into contact with the era’s glittering film scene, counterculture movements, and ominous undercurrents, including the rise of the Manson Family. Expanding on the acclaimed film, the story blends sharp dialogue, dark humor, cinematic detail, and reflections on friendship, fame, loyalty, and reinvention. It is a vivid, character-driven portrait of an industry—and a city—on the brink of transformation.
