Opis

Published a year after The Great Gatsby, this short-story collection showcases many of the celebrated novel's themes, as well as its unique writing style. Two of the most famous tales, the beautifully elegiac 'The Rich Boy' - - and 'Winter Dreams', deal with wealthy protagonists - the old-money Anson Hunter and the self-made man Dexter Green - as they come to terms with lost love, while 'Absolution', in which a boy confesses to a priest, was initially written as a background piece to The Great Gatsby. Also containing 'The Baby Party', 'Rags Martin-Jones and the Pr - nce of W - les', 'The Adjuster', 'Hot and Cold Blood', 'The Sensible Thing' - - and 'Gretchen's Forty Winks' - - - all of which describe in various ways the 1920s society that Fitzgerald himself inhabited - All the Sad Young Men is a masterpiece of twentieth-century American fiction.
