John Green

According to author John Green, The Fault In Our Stars was inspired by his friendship with Esther Earl, who "redefined the process of dying young for me." (December 2012 Good Reads interview, http://www.goodreads.com/interviews/show/828.John_Green). He cautions his readers not to take the novel too literally however, stating that he doesn't "want people conflating Esther with Hazel (they're very different), and it's extremely important to me that I not claim to be telling Esther's story. Esther's story belongs to Esther and to her family." (John Green's tumblr, August 2, 2012 http://fishingboatproceeds.tumblr.com/post/28557373623/everybody-was-told-to-make-a-funny-face-but-i). Esther's story is told in the 2014 posthumous memoir This Star Won't Go Out : the Life and Words of Esther Grace Earl.

The Anthropocene is the current geologic age, in which humans have profoundly reshaped the planet and its biodiversity. In this remarkable symphony of essays adapted and expanded from his groundbreaking podcast, bestselling author John Green reviews different facets of the human-centered planet on a five-star scale-from the QWERTY keyboard and sunsets to Canada geese and Penguins of Madagascar. Funny, complex, and rich with detail, the reviews chart the contradictions of contemporary humanity. As a species, we are both far too powerful and not nearly powerful enough, a paradox that came into sharp focus as we faced a global pandemic that both separated us and bound us together. John Green's gift for storytelling shines throughout this masterful collection. The Anthropocene Reviewed is a open-hearted exploration of the paths we forge and an unironic celebration of falling in love with the world.[Bokinfo].

Eine wie Alaska

Hazel é uma paciente terminal. Ainda que, por um milagre da medicina, seu tumor tenha encolhido bastante — o que lhe dá a promessa de viver mais alguns anos —, o último capítulo de sua história foi escrito no momento do diagnóstico. Mas em todo bom enredo há uma reviravolta, e a de Hazel se chama Augustus Waters, um garoto bonito que certo dia aparece no Grupo de Apoio a Crianças com Câncer. Juntos, os dois vão preencher o pequeno infinito das páginas em branco de suas vidas. Inspirador, corajoso, irreverente e brutal, A culpa é das estrelas é a obra mais ambiciosa e emocionante de John Green, sobre a alegria e a tragédia que é viver e amar.
