Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: A Novel

Quentin Tarantino's long-awaited first work of fiction--at once hilarious, delicious and brutal--is the always surprising, sometimes shocking, novelization of his Academy Award winning film.

RICK DALTON--Once he had his own TV series, but now Rick's a washed-up villain-of-the week drowning his sorrows in whiskey sours. Will a phone call from Rome save his fate or seal it?

CLIFF BOOTH--Rick's stunt double, and the most infamous man on any movie set because he's the only one there who might have got away with murder. . . .

SHARON TATE--She left Texas to chase a movie-star dream, and found it. Sharon's salad days are now spent on Cielo Drive, high in the Hollywood Hills.

CHARLES MANSON--The ex-con's got a bunch of zonked-out hippies thinking he's their spiritual leader, but he'd trade it all to be a rock 'n' roll star.
