For fans of the creator of HBO's hit-series Girls, Lena Dunham has just released the cover and release date of her new book. And it's today February 14, 2014.
The fierce actress took to social networking site Instagram Monday morning, February 10 to share to the world the cover of her upcoming book named Not That Kind of Girl: A Young Woman Tells You What She's 'Learned'.
The Girls creator has captioned the photo: "It's official. Coming 10/7/14."
With the success of her HBO series creation, it is no longer a surprise that the actress and now author's first book is anticipated by publishers and fans.
Reports say that Dunham made a deal with Random House publishing that amounts to over $3.5 million.
Editor-in-chief of Random House Susan Kamil says, "We're thrilled to welcome Lena to Random House. Her skill on the page as a writer is remarkable -- fresh, wise, so assured. She is that rare literary talent that will only grow from strength to strength and we look forward to helping her build a long career as an author."
The book, Not That Kind of Girl is now available for preorder on Amazon.com. It has a beautiful introduction by new author Lena Dunham. Below is an excerpt.
"If I can take what I've learned in this life and make one treacherous relationship or degrading job easier for you, perhaps even prevent you from becoming temporarily vegan, then every misstep of mine will have been worthwhile. This book contains stories about wonderful nights with terrible boys and terrible days with wonderful friends, about ambition and the two existential crises I had before the age of twenty..."
Excited fans and readers can expect the book to be filled with humour and wit that Dunham is known for.
Dunham says during an interview with the Guardian, "I wrote this book because I have a unique perspective that the world needs to hear."
