F. Scott Fitzgerald Novels & Stories 1920-1922 The Library of America 2000 1st Printing w/Slipcase New At the outset of what he called “the greatest, the gaudiest spree in history,” F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote the works that brought him instant fame, mastering the glittering aphoristic prose and keen social observation that would distinguish all his writing. Celebrating the riotous energy and naïve optimism of a generation that believed itself liberated from the past, Fitzgerald’s early works, which are collected in this Library of America volume, also sound a plaintive strain beneath the era’s wild cacophony, a lament for the wasted potential of youth. They remain the fullest literary expression of one of the most fascinating eras in American life.#FScottFitzgerald#ThisSideofParadise#TheLibraryofAmerica#vintagebooks#bookstore
