Description

F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote more than 160 short stories for magazines, but it was his only four novels that established him as one of the major icons of American literature. The latter were The Great Gatsby, The Beautiful and Damned, This Side of Paradise, and Tender Is the Night.

He had very shrewd social insight, which is evident in this collection of Tales of the Jazz Age.

It was a period of time that he personally defined: "It was an age of miracles, it was an age of art, it was an age of excess, and it was an age of satire."

This was basically true, but actually the period defied any rigid explanation. This time in our history has been called a cultural phenomenon often referred to as the Roaring Twenties. There was a migration of many millions of Americans leaving behind rural Southern communities to go to the industrialized cities in the North. Trying to pin any of the Fitzgerald literature to a specific genre is impossible, as you will discover in this small short story collection.
