About This Novel
This book collects short stories by American novelist Fitzgerald, which is known as a true portrayal of America's "Wild Age". This work was first published in 1926. At that time, the author fell into dual financial and marital crises, and his wife also suffered physical trauma. The resulting thoughts on the "difficulties of the times" are also concentrated in this work. The United States has experienced a prosperous "Jazz Age", with rapid development of material life, but there is a faint sense of uneasiness behind the extravagant life. Fitzgerald describes a group of exuberant young people who strive to pursue worldly fame and fortune until they achieve success, but lose the most important things in their hearts. The American dream that everyone once longed for is almost shattered. Fitzgerald's prediction of the times made him a representative writer of America's "Lost Generation".

Worth reading,
Worth a look! Top!
It's worth watching. I'll definitely finish it when I have time.
Can anyone tell me what it means, nothing but sadness? The first story can be described as empty and confused, but what exactly do you want to express in the second one? 🙏😂
Not bad!
A bit expensive!
