Lena Dunham will release a new memoir, "Famesick," in 2026.

Lena Dunham is back in the writer's room. Well, kind of.

The celebrated mind behind HBO's hit "Girls" will release a new memoir in 2026, building off her much-talked-about 2014 memoir "Not That Kind of Girl: A Young Woman Tells You What She's 'Learned.'"

The new book, entitled "Famesick," will hit shelves in hardcover format on April 14 and is described as a "rowdy, frank reflection on illness, fame, sex, and everything in between."

"Famesick" (Penguin Random House, which also published her first book) will chronicle Dunham's life from her rise to fame to the present day in three parts.

Dunham, who has been open with her health struggles, will take readers inside hospital rooms as she battles chronic disease and attempts to maintain the level of ambition that landed her on the Met Gala steps and at the White House, the synopsis promises.

"When an endless supply of drugs can’t protect you from pain − and begins to control your every move − being famous does't stand a chance against the darker corners of the human experience," the book's summary reads.

Though the memoir's description offers far from a rosy view of Dunham's now-decade-plus in the spotlight, it does offer some relief, guaranteeing some of the writer and actress' signature wisdom alongside the hardest moments.

"What she finds is deeper than physical relief, and more lasting, as she learns to live with what she can't change and turn her regrets into wisdom that can carry her forward, as she reconnects to what, and who, she loves," the books description says.

The format appears to differ slightly from her previous book, "Not That Kind of Girl," which was comprised of a collection of essays and lists, but will likely adopt the same candor in tackling body image and coming of age.

"Famesick" arrives on the heels of "Too Much," a brand-new Dunham-produced Netflix series in the same vein as "Girls" but befitting the modern era.
