Tuberculosis has been entwined with humanity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it. In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John became fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequities that allow this curable, preventable infectious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year. In Everything Is Tuberculosis, John tells Henry’s story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world—and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis.

Or that the way back to true love begins with a painfully early morning shift at Starbucks. Thanks to three of today’s bestselling teen authors—John Green, Maureen Johnson, and Lauren Myracle—the magic of the holidays shines on these hilarious and charming interconnected tales of love, romance, and breathtaking kisses.Alternate cover edition for B006MOW98E

This was available as a perk for people who donated to the Harry Potter Alliance's Equality FTW fundraiser.The first section of John Green's unfinished, abandoned novel THE SEQUEL, which is a sequel to a novel that doesn't exist called THE ODD AT SEA. About the story, John says "THE SEQUEL contains a lot of the ideas that ended up in THE FAULT IN OUR STARS, although it's a very different kind of story. I worked on THE SEQUEL between 2008 and 2010 before finally putting it aside. There is of course a REASON why I abandoned it: It isn't very good. But it has some moments I still like, and I'm hoping seeing a draft like this will provide a window into one writer's process. And of course I want to raise some money for the HPA!" THE SEQUEL is the story of a young woman named Hannah al-Hajji who finds herself alone in the world after the novel in which she is a character ends. Everyone else in the novel disappears, but she for some reason is left with us. The story costars a young student chaplain, recently graduated from college, who happens to have read the novel that Hannah was a minor character in. The selection is 6,437 words long.

Una raccolta delle storie più belle scritte da John Green, che risplendono più che mai in questo nuovo firmamento puntellato dai racconti che lo hanno reso noto in tutto il mondo. Si tratta di vite che vengono sconvolte da incontri sorprendenti, come quello tra Miles Halter e Alaska Young, che disordina il loro grigio quotidiano mettendoli faccia a faccia con la morte e con la forza dell'amore incondizionato; della sofferenza della malattia che scopre nuova luce nell'incontro con l'altro, come succede tra le corsie dell'ospedale in cui si trovano Hazel e Augustus; o ancora, di vicende misteriose che riguardano una vecchia compagna di scuola, che una notte si affaccia alla finestra di Quentin Jacobsen per strapparlo dal sonno e dalla monotonia della loro Città di carta. Attraverso l'America e le sfumature dell'adolescenza, Green narra in modo magnifico l'impatto che una vita può avere su un'altra.
