Synopsis "Tales From The Jazz Age (in English)"
Tales of the Jazz Age (1922) is a collection of eleven short stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Divided into three separate parts, according to subject matter, it includes one of his better-known short stories, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button". All of the stories had been published earlier, independently, in either Metropolitan Magazine (New York), Saturday Evening Post, Smart Set, Collier's, Chicago Sunday Tribune, or Vanity Fair.The collection that emerges from this disheartened capitulation and anxious apologising is uneven, which gives a snapshot of an author in transition, struggling to reach richer shores. Some stories already possess the gravity of the later work, in particular one that he had struggled to sell, "May Day", in which Fitzgerald's partygoing crowd encounter the violence of May Day 1919. Here we see the desperate as well as the decadent, the angry alongside the apathetic, in a panorama of "the general hysteria and confusion of values which follow war".
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.
