Sie waren das wohl glamouröseste Paar ihrer Zeit, Ikonen der Lost Generation, skandalumwittert und skandalträchtig. Er, Scott, berühmter Autor des "Großen Gatsby", aber fest in einer Schaffenskrise und zutiefst verunsichert. Sie, Zelda, mittelmäßige Malerin und Tänzerin, begabte, aber heimlich schreibende Autorin. Beide alkohol- und streitsüchtig. Ihre Ehe mündet nach mehreren Jahren in einer zermürbenden Hassliebe, in der sich heftige Liebesbekundungen mit derben Verbalattacken abwechseln, immer begleitet von schweren gegenseitigen Vorwürfen.

Er ist der letzte Hollywood-Produzent, der Mittelmaß und Klischees nicht duldet: Monroe Stahr verbringt Tag und Nacht in den Aufnahmestudios, Vorführräumen und Drehbuchschreiber-Büros, um die Arbeit an seinen Filmen zu überwachen. Als ein Gewitter nachts die Kulisse für eine Burma-Szene unter Wasser setzt, ist er sofort zur Stelle - und entdeckt dabei zwei Frauen, die sich unerlaubt auf das Gelände geschlichen haben. Eine davon ist Kathleen Moore - deren natürlicher Charme Monroe Stahr vom ersten Augenblick an in den Bann zieht.

Als John T. Unger auf die teuerste und exklusivste Jungenschule des Landes geschickt wird, sind seine Eltern stolz und er selbst begeistert. Bedeutet es doch herauszukommen aus Hades - "Ja, es ist heiß da unten" -, einer Kleinstadt am Mississippi, die als nichts als provinziell gelten kann. An der St. Midas School ist alles nach Johns Geschmack: Umgeben von chic gekleideten, mit guten Umgangsformen ausgestatteten reichen Jungen - "Je reicher einer ist, desto mehr mag ich ihn" -, wird er schließlich von dem etwas unnahbaren Percy über die Sommerferien zu sich nach Hause eingeladen. Die Welt, die sich ihm dort auftut, übertrifft alle seine Erwartungen. Zimmer ganz aus Ebenholz und Gold, saphirner Haarschmuck, Teller aus hauchdünnen Diamanten. Eine unentdeckte Welt inmitten von Montana. Ein Paradies oder ein Gefängnis?

La vida de Scott Fitzgerald, el autor de El Gran Gatsby daria para una novela casi igual a las que escribio. Bohemio, exitoso, con una vida conyugal accidentada, Scott Fitzgerald supo plasmar en sus pocas obras a esos personajes cinicos y brutales que surgieron despues de la primera guerra mundial.

Cuando F. Scott Fitzgerald escribió El Gran Gatsby al principio de los años veinte, el sueño americano ya estaba en decadencia. Originalmente estaba basado en la idea de que la búsqueda de la felicidad no solo involucraba el éxito material sino también el crecimiento moral y espiritual. Para el tiempo de Fitzgerald el sueño se había enfocado increíblemente en el dinero y el placer - un fenómeno que le era muy familiar al rico escritor.

Welcome to a wonderful slice of backwoods American humor. F. Scott Fitzgerald penned this delightful short tale of love, feuds, whiskey, and rye. Narrator Glenn Hascall follows the story with character and wit fully intact. This may remind you of classic love stories, but the twists, turns, and slingshots make something entirely different.

In This Side of Paradise, F. Scott Fitzgerald gives us Amory Blaine, who, from boyhood through his early 20s, is on a quest for his identity, his philosophy, and his sense of place in a world never quite his own, a world in which he moves with barely concealed ego-fueled disgust and contempt. Fitzgerald's breakthrough novel, written in 1920 when the author was 23, manages to be both a thinly veiled autobiography and a sincere attempt by Fitzgerald to get into the head of the young, privileged personages of his time.

The title of this short story by F Scott Fitzgerald is a bit deceptive and doesn't do this story justice. The four fists are actually four very valuable life lessons delivered with a fist.
