Collected Works of F Scott Fitzgerald

Gathered here are the five novels he wrote in his relatively short career, together with a number of the many short stories he wrote between 1922 and his death in 1940.This Side of Paradisecatapulted him to fame, its expose of the manners and morals of a post-war generation becoming a cause celebre. The Beautifuland Damned, a semi autobiographical moral parable of a doomed marriage, affirmed Fitzgerald’s status as the spokesman for the generation of the 1920s. His third novel, The Great Gatsby, remains for many readers the definitive American novel of the twentieth century, its eponymous hero a complex fictional portrayal of a romantic imagination at the mercy of a corrupt reality.
