Synopsis "Mod lib the Beautiful and Damned (Modern Library) (in English)"

Introduction by Hortense Calisher Commentary by Edmund Wilson, Henry Seidel Canby, and Arthur Mizener Fitzgerald's second novel, a devastating portrait of the excesses of the Jazz Age, is a largely autobiographical depiction of a glamorous, reckless Manhattan couple and their spectacular spiral into tragedy. Published on the heels of This Side of Paradise, the story of the Harvard-educated aesthete Anthony Patch and his willful wife, Gloria, is propelled by Fitzgerald's intense romantic imagination and demonstrates an increased technical and emotional maturity. The Beautiful and Damned is at once a gripping morality tale, a rueful meditation on love, marriage, and money, and an acute social document. As Hortense Calisher observes in her Introduction, "Though Fitzgerald can entrance with stories so joyfully youthful they appear to be safe--when he cuts himself, you will bleed." Includes a Modern Library Reading Group Guide

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (Saint Paul, Minnesota, 24 de septiembre de 1896-Hollywood, California, 21 de diciembre de 1940) fue un militar, anfitrión, novelista y escritor estadounidense, ampliamente conocido como uno de los mejores autores del siglo xx, cuyos trabajos son paradigmáticos de la era del jazz. Fitzgerald es considerado miembro de la Generación Perdida de los años veinte.

Escribió cinco novelas: El gran Gatsby, Suave es la noche, A este lado del paraíso, Hermosos y malditos y El último magnate, que, aunque sin terminar, fue publicada tras su muerte. Escribió también múltiples historias cortas, muchas de las cuales tratan sobre la juventud y las promesas, la edad y la desesperación.
