Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này

In "The Collected Works," Francis Scott Fitzgerald encapsulates the essence of the Jazz Age with a prolific array of short stories, essays, and the seminal novels that defined 1920s American literature. This anthology showcases Fitzgerald's masterful prose, rich with lyrical imagery and keen social commentary, navigating themes of aspiration, disillusionment, and the fleeting nature of the American Dream. The literary context is steeped in the post-World War I zeitgeist, where burgeoning modernity clashed with traditional values, reflecting both the tumult and exhilaration of a rapidly changing society. Fitzgerald's distinctive narrative style blends a deep emotional resonance with a sense of irony, inviting readers to explore the complexities of ambition and excess. Fitzgerald, born into a milieu of privilege yet confronting personal adversity, drew from his own life experiences and societal observations to craft narratives that resonate with authenticity. His tumultuous marriage to Zelda Sayre, along with his struggles with alcoholism, profoundly influenced his literary voice, infusing his works with poignant realism. Through his keen psychological insight, Fitzgerald became a chronicler of the American predicament, deftly capturing the zeitgeist of an era that clung tightly to both glamour and despair. "The Collected Works" is a must-read for those seeking an immersive experience of American literature, providing a definitive glimpse into the mind of one of the 20th century's most compelling authors. Ideal for scholars, students, and fans of classic literature alike, this collection serves as both a poignant reflection on human nature and a critical commentary on the societal changes of Fitzgerald's time, making it an indispensable addition to any literary library.

Giới thiệu tác giả

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (1896–1940), more widely known as F. Scott Fitzgerald, is lauded as one of the foremost authors of the American Jazz Age, a term he is credited with coining. Born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, he attended Princeton University, though he never graduated, instead enlisting in the U.S. Army during World War I. Fitzgerald's literary career is best defined by his keen observation of the 1920s era's excess and its brittle underpinnings, encapsulated in his magnum opus, 'The Great Gatsby' (1925). His first novel, 'This Side of Paradise' (1920), became a sensation, emblematic of the young generation he was portraying. Besides 'The Great Gatsby,' other essential works within 'The Collected Works of F. Scott Fitzgerald' include 'Tender Is The Night' (1934) and the posthumously published 'The Last Tycoon' (1941). His narratives often explore themes of youth, beauty, and the disintegration of American idealism, frequently mirrored by his own tumultuous life and career. The elegance of his prose and the depth of his characterizations endure in the canon of American literature, solidifying his legacy as a central figure of both the Modernist literary movement and the examination of the American Dream.
