Since first appearing in Victor Appleton's children's novel Tom Swift and His Wizard Camera (1912), film-related characters or themes have shown up in a variety of fiction genres, such as historical novels, romance novels, mysteries and thrillers.

The Hollywood Novel is the first book-length critical and historical guide to this genre. Analyzed are not only novels specifically set within the Hollywood film industry, but also those with film-related characters (real or fictional), and film-related settings anywhere in the world.

Arranged alphabetically by author, individual entries for over 1,200 English-language works provide bibliographic data, a brief synopsis that sets the author's work in context, and a critical examination. (Authors and titles are also listed chronologically for easy reference.) Also featured are the first-ever bibliographies of television and radio novels.
