F. Scott Fitzgerald is one of America's greatest writers. His novel The Great Gatsby remains on the bestseller lists 70 years after his death. Tales of the Jazz Age defined a generation. It was Fitzgerald himself who coined the phrase. He and his wife lived a decadent, fast-paced lifestyle that is reflected in his writing. The recent major motion pictures The Great Gatsby and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which is included in this collection, have led a new generation to rediscover his phenomenal talent.
