Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. To tie in with the 100 year anniversary of The Great Gatsby, Gatsby: Death of an Irishman delivers a compelling and new insight into the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the genesis of The Great Gatsby.Fitzgerald once told a friend that 'Gatsby started as one man I knew and then changed into myself.' Jay Gatsby's story is one of aspiration and reinvention, so was Fitzgerald's. The book shows how Fitzgerald dramatized the most powerful emotional experiences of his own life in the novel; from his childhood in the Midwest, Ivy League education at Princeton, literary success in New York, partying on Long Island, and marital struggles on the French Riviera.Underpinning Scott's brilliant, but turbulent, life was his complex, evolving and surprising relationship with his Irish heritage. Scott's journey went from childhood shame in St. Paul at being 'common' Irish to a patriotic immersion in Irish literature and revolutionary politics at Princeton. But the shame never went away, reinforced when the poor boy found he could not marry the rich girl. He tried to escape it; first through his imagination as a boy, and then through self-invention as a young man, then in his writing, and throughout his adult life in alcohol. Gatsby: Death of an Irishman is a fresh and compelling insight into the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the genesis of his most iconic character.

'Can you say whether your bank has an account in the name of a man called Michael Collins?' - Alan Bell, official bank inquiry.In 1919, the revolutionary Irish government launches an audacious plan to crowdfund the equivalent of 30,000,000 to fund a counter-state in open defiance of British rule in Ireland. Half the funds are to be raised in Ireland and half in America. This start-up government is determined not only to replace the British administration in Ireland but also to implement its own industrial and financial policies, including establishing a national bank.But the funding campaign in America is delayed owing to regulatory obstacles. It is imperative that the domestic funding campaign succeeds. Without funds, the counter-state government is doomed to failure. A financial 'Ho Chi Minh Trail' is established; couriers secretly begin distributing three million promotional leaflets throughout the country and carrying subscriptions to Dublin; Head Office staff ensure that receipts are issued, loan registers updated and coded financial accounts maintained. The money is laundered into bank accounts and converted into gold using a 'gold exchange network'.An uncompromising former detective, now a near-retired magistrate, is summoned to Dublin to go after the money. This is the untold history of the fight for the revolutionary government's funds, the bank inquiry that shook the financial establishment and the first battle in the intelligence war.
