Publisher's Synopsis
In his short life F. Scott Fitzgerald played many roles - celebrant of riotous youth in the Jazz Age, puritanical opponent of purposeless splendour, literary star and movie hack, the helpless and then the reformed alcoholic. Above all, however, he was a dedicated writer of genuine poetic talent. Few who produced so little can have left so many rich and varied reflections, from the gorgeously romantic, via the regretful, to the dourly pessimistic. This collection of sayings illustrates every phase of his intriguing life.
