“Writers
aren’t people exactly. Or, if they’re any good, they’re a whole lot of people
trying so hard to be one person.” ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald

Francis Scott
Key Fitzgerald (Sep 24, 1896 – Dec 21, 1940), known
professionally as F. Scott Fitzgerald,
was an American novelist and short story writer, whose works illustrate the Jazz Age. While he achieved limited success in his lifetime, he is now widely
regarded as one of the greatest American
writers of the 20th century. Fitzgerald is considered a member of
the "Lost Generation" of the
1920s. He finished four novels: This
Side of Paradise, The
Beautiful and Damned, The
Great Gatsby, and Tender
Is the Night. A fifth, unfinished novel, The
Last Tycoon, was published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote numerous
short stories, many of which treat themes of youth and promise, and age and
despair.
