Über den Autor
F. Scott Fitzgerald was born on September 24, 1896, in St. Paul, Minnesota. He was educated at Princeton University and served in the United States Army during World War I. His first novel, This Side of Paradise (1920), was a national bestseller; Fitzgerald followed it with three more complete novels and hundreds of popular short stories. The Great Gatsby (1925), a timeless story of social class, race, and gender in America, remains his best-known work. Fitzgerald was living in Los Angeles, working on movie screenplays and a novel he called The Love of the Last Tycoon, when he died of a heart attack on December 21, 1941, at the age of 44.
Zusammenfassung
THE WRITER AND HIS WORK

This volume includes a wide array of F. Scott Fitzgerald's personal and professional writings, including excerpts from his notebooks, ledger, letters on composition of the novel and his marriage, short stories and the original draft of the novel. Fitzgerald's own words are supported by works on the Jazz Age and Modernism as well as the literary sources which informed Fitzgerald's interpretation of American society.

THE RESPONSE TO FITZGERALD

F. Scott Fitzgerald's popularity has been inconsistent, and the critical apparatus follows its course thorough post-publication reviews and reactions to The Great Gatsby to Fitzgerald's declining reputation and eventual revival. Readers can compare and contrast the initial responses with recent critical interpretations exploring themes of identity, race, wealth and the American Dream.
