Kill Bill Cinematic Book

In addition to the planned publication of the Kill Bill screenplay, Talk Miramax Books will release a book version of the movie.
Tarantino calls the book a hybrid "cinematic novel", telling Variety "I'm moving away from screenplay format, keeping what I do like of the form and throwing away what I don't.... Kill Bill is not a novelization. It functions as a script, and it functions as a novel, but it's not a script and it's not a novelization. It's something in the middle that gets across my writing style as its purest."
Without having any real knowledge of what Tarantino considers a "cinematic novel", I'd guess that it'll be a very dialogue-driven book, skipping over much of the wordiness that you typically see in a full fledged novel.

UPDATE: The cinematic novel has been cancelled.
