Years after his death, F. Scott Fitzgerald continues to captivate
both the popular and the critical imagination. This collection of
essays presents fresh insights into his writing, discussing
neglected texts and approaching familiar works from new
perspectives.
Seventeen scholarly articles deal not only with Fitzgerald's
novels but with his stories and essays as well, considering such
topics as the Roman Catholic background of "The Beautiful and
Damned" and the influence of Mark Twain on Fitzgerald's work and
self-conception. The volume also features four personal essays by
Fitzgerald's friends Budd Schulberg, Frances Kroll Ring, publisher
Charles Scribner III, and writer George Garrett that shed new light
on his personal and professional lives. Together these
contributions demonstrate the continued vitality of Fitzgerald's
work and establish new directions for ongoing discussions of his
life and writing.
