In the euphoric months before and after the publication of This Side of Paradise, F. Scott Fitzgerald, the flapper's historian and poet laureate of the Jazz Age, wrote the ten stories that appear in this unique collection. Exploring characters and themes that would appear in his later works, such as The Beautiful and Damned and The Great Gatsby, these early selections are among the very best of Fitzgerald's many short stories.
This Modern Library Paperback Classic includes notes, an appendix of nonfiction essays by Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald and their contemporaries, and vintage magazine illustrations.
Junto con su esposa Zelda, heredera de una rica familia americana, Francis Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) fue durante algunos años el centro de una brillante vida social e intelectual en los míticos escenarios dorados de los años veinte: París, Nueva York y Hollywood. Además de "El gran Gatsby", es el autor de "A este lado del paraíso" y "Hermosos y malditos", publicadas también en Alianza Editorial, "Suave es la noche" y "El último magnate".
