All The Sad Young Men

Published a year after The Great Gatsby, this collection of nine short stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald includes two of his most famous - the beautifully elegiac 'the Rich Boy' and 'Winter Dreams.' Like Gatsby, these two tales feature wealthy protagonists - the old-money Anson Hunter and the self-made man Dexter Green - who struggle to come to terms with lost love. The short story 'Absolution', in which a boy confesses to a priest, was initially written as a background piece to The Great Gatsby. Also containing 'the Baby Party, ' 'Rags Martin-Jones and the Pr-nce of W-les', 'the Adjuster, ' 'Hot and Cold Blood, ' 'the Sensible Thing' and 'Gretchen's Forty Winks' - all of which describe in various ways the 1920s society that Fitzgerald himself inhabited - All the Sad Young Men is a masterpiece of twentieth-century American fiction.
