A captivating and glamorous tale of squandered talent that defined ‘The Lost Generation’ of 1920s New York

Anthony Patch and Gloria Gibson are the golden children of the Jazz Age. They marry and embark on a life of glittering parties, lavish expenditure and scandalous revelry. When the money dries up their marriage founders.

In this wistful novel Fitzgerald portrays the decline of youthful promise with devastating clarity.

Industry Reviews

'The Jazz Age chronicler's first great novel.' - The Times

'No one has written more elegiacally about America than F. Scott Fitzgerald...a sense of lost time and the irretrievability of the past gave much of his work - indeed, his life - an ineradicable undertone of mourning.' - Guardian

'If Francis Scott Fitzgerald had not existed, it would have been necessary to invent him. Seldom has there been a character who personified, as well as chronicled, an age with such dexterity and verisimilitude.' - Sunday Times

'None was more beautiful, none more damned, than Fitzgerald himself.' - Independent on Sunday
