"Greg Gaines is the last master of high school espionage, able to disappear at will into any social environment. He has only one friend, Earl, and together they spend their time making movies, their own incomprehensible versions of Coppola and Herzog cult classics. Until Greg's mother forces him to rekindle his childhood friendship with Rachel. Rachel has been diagnosed with leukemia -- cue extreme adolescent awkwardness -- but a parental mandate has been issued and must be obeyed. When Rachel stops treatment, Greg and Earl decide the thing to do is to make a film for her, which turns into the Worst Film Ever Made and becomes a turning point in each of their lives. And all at once Greg must abandon invisibility and stand in the spotlight."
"A hilarious, outrageous, and truthful look at friendship, high school - and death - from a talented debut author. Film to be directed by Dan Fogelman."@en
"Ein Junge, der Filme dreht. Ein Mädchen, das stirbt. Eine Geschichte, die einen nicht mehr loslässt Was Greg mag: sich in der Schule so unauffällig zu verhalten, dass er nahezu unsichtbar wird. Gelegentlich mit seinem Freund Earl einen Film zu drehen. Seine Ruhe. Was er nicht mag: die Idee seiner Mutter, der todkranken Rachel beizustehen. Womit er nicht gerechnet hat: Rachel selbst, die keinen braucht, der sie bemitleidet, und die ihre ganz eigene Vorstellung von jenen Tagen hat, die ihre letzten sein könnten ... Die Taktik des siebzehnjährigen Greg ist ganz klar: Sich möglichst aus allem raushalten, so übersteht man die Highschool-Jahre am besten, ohne in irgendeiner unliebsamen Clique zu stranden. Einzig mit dem zynischen Earl ist Greg befreundet - wobei "befreundet" es nicht ganz trifft. Earl und er haben vielmehr ein gemeinsames Projekt. Sie drehen Filme, in denen sie den Klassikern der Filmgeschichte nacheifern. Als Gregs Sandkastenfreundin Rachel an Leukämie erkrankt und Greg sich "um sie kümmern" soll, sieht er nur eine Chance, dem Auftrag nachzukommen und gleichzeitig seinen Prinzipien treu zu bleiben: Greg und Earl drehen einen Film für Rachel. Und irgendwann währenddessen kommt Greg dann doch aus der sicheren Distanz hinter der Kamera hervor und nimmt von Rachel Abschied ... Jesse Andrews hat einen Harvard-Abschluss und lebte schon in Spanien und Deutschland (wo er in einer Jugendherberge arbeitete). Er kommt ursprünglich aus Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, und wohnt derzeit in Brooklyn, New York. Ich und Earl und das sterbende Mädchen ist sein Debüt-Roman."

"It is a universally acknowledged truth that high school sucks. But on the first day of his senior year, Greg Gaines thinks he's figured it out. The answer to the basic existential question: How is it possible to exist in a place that sucks so bad? His strategy: remain at the periphery at all times. Keep an insanely low profile. Make mediocre films with the one person who is even sort of his friend, Earl. This plan works for exactly eight hours. Then Greg's mom forces him to become friends with a girl who has cancer. This brings about the destruction of Greg's entire life. Includes a discussion with Jesse Andrews and an annotated excerpt from the screenplay!"
