F. Scott Fitzgerald - Morreria por Ti e Outras Histórias Esquecidas
21.90€
Lost to readers due to publishers' misunderstanding, forgotten in library archives and private collections, or amidst Fitzgerald's tumultuous life in the 1930s, these eighteen stories, now returned to literature, echo the nostalgia contained in Gertrude Stein's famous lament when referring to the "lost generation."
The publication of these texts, organized and prepared by Anne Margaret Daniel, returns to us a Fitzgerald free from the censorship and narrative sterilization imposed by his contemporary publishers.
Written with his characteristic beauty and genius, the unavoidable author of some of the best classics of contemporary literature explores familiar themes with surprising freshness: dreams of glory and success, the loneliness of ordinary people and celebrities in a world in crisis, the film industry and its customs, illness, madness.
A Fitzgerald who was very realistic and nonconformist for the time that saw him write *The Great Gatsby* and *Tender Is the Night*, but no less brilliant for it.
