Il primo romanzo di Scott Fitzgerald, scritto quando l'autore aveva ventiquattro anni, apparve nel 1920 e lo consacrò immediatamente come una delle principali figure letterarie nel brillante e pericoloso mondo dell'America degli anni '20. Il romanzo racconta la storia di un bambino viziato in cerca di felicità. Coccolato da bambino, ricco, brillante a scuola, Amory Blaine cerca l'amore degli altri ma trova solo se stesso. Un capolavoro breve e tagliente con un'intrigante vena religiosa, questo è anche un romanzo toccante e autobiografico che riflette in modo sinistro sul futuro di Fitzgerald.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940) was an American novelist, essayist, and short story writer. He is best known for his novels depicting the flamboyance and excess of the Jazz Age―a term he popularized in his short story collection Tales of the Jazz Age. During his lifetime, he published four novels, four story collections, and 164 short stories. Although he achieved temporary popular success and fortune in the 1920s, Fitzgerald received critical acclaim only after his death and is now widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Scott Fitzgerald's first novel, written when the author was twenty-four, appeared in 1920 and immediately established him as a leading literary figure in the brilliant and dangerous world of 1920s America. The novel tells the story of a spoilt child in search of happiness. Pampered as a child, wealthy, brilliant at school, Amory Blaine looks for the love of others but only finds himself. A short, sharp masterpiece with an intriguing religious undertow, this is also a touchingly autobiographical novel which reflects ominously on Fitzgerald's own future.
