By F. Scott Fitzgerald
From
Collins Classics, short stories from the author of ‘The Great Gatsby’ and
including ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’.
In these eleven stories, Fitzgerald depicts the Roaring Twenties
as he lived them. He masterfully blends accounts of flappers and the smart set
with more fantastical visions of America, always imbuing his narratives with
his trademark themes of money, class, ambition and love.
In ‘May Day’, Fitzgerald weaves an
account of a raucous Yale alumni party, the participants of which are oblivious
to the violent socialist demonstration being acted out around them.
‘The
Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ is an unorthodox account of a man who ages
backwards, and ‘The Diamond as Big as the Ritz’ tells the story of a young man
who discovers that his friend’s family possesses a diamond that is literally
larger than the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. This 1922 collection confirmed Fitzgerald
as the voice of his generation.
