Tales Of The Jazz Age (Oxford World'S Classics)

'I tender these tales of the Jazz Age into the hands of those who read as they run and run as they read.' F. Scott Fitzgerald chose the stories for his second collection when he was just twenty-five years old, and in the full flush of wild literary success. Tales of the Jazz Age is a quirky, electrifying selection reaching back into his college days and includes new stories, showing Fitzgerald's strengths not only asone of America's leading short story authors in the early 1920s, but as a playwright, farcical satirist, melodramatist, and fantastical novella-writer. He went in all these directions with equal ease and flash in 1922. Talesof the Jazz Age was a bestseller then, and remains so now.In these eleven stories, Fitzgerald establishes the style that was to make him one of the greatest American writers of the twentieth-century.
