Quentin Tarantino to Publish Novel with Italian Publisher La Nave di Teseo

Quentin Tarantino will publish his novel 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' in 25 languages with Italian publisher La Nave di Teseo, releasing in June 2021. The book, originally conceived as a novel before becoming a film, features significant plot and character differences from the movie. It expands on the story of TV star Rick Dalton and his stunt double Cliff Booth, played by Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt in the 2019 film. The deal, brokered with agency William Morris, also includes a non-fiction essay. La Nave di Teseo will simultaneously add Tarantino's screenplays to its catalog, starting with 'Pulp Fiction'. Publisher and co-founder Elisabetta Sgarbi expressed honor at the acquisition. The publisher celebrates its fifth anniversary.
