Produktbeschreibung

This volume of the Cambridge Fitzgerald Edition includes the original nine stories selected by Fitzgerald for All the Sad Young Men, together with eleven additional stories, published between 1925 and 1928, which were not collected by Fitzgerald during his lifetime. This edition is based on extensive surviving manuscripts and typescripts. The volume contains a scholarly introduction, historical notes, a textual apparatus, illustrations, and appendices. The complex history of composition for 'The Rich Boy' is untangled, and Fitzgerald's thorough revision of 'Winter Dreams' is described. Important passages of sexual innuendo and tabloid-style scandal in 'Jacob's Ladder', 'The Love Boat', and 'Magnetism' - removed by editors at the Saturday Evening Post - are restored to the Cambridge texts.

Autorenporträt

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) est l'un des plus grands écrivains américains du XXe siècle. Surtout connu pour son roman The Great Gatsby, il a capturé dans ses ¿uvres les excès et les désillusions de l'âge du jazz. Sa prose brillante, ses commentaires sociaux acérés et son exploration du rêve américain ont fait de lui une voix déterminante de la littérature américaine. Outre The Great Gatsby, il a écrit Tender Is the Night et This Side of Paradise.
