ABOUT THE BOOK

F. Scott Fitzgerald's debut novel, "This Side of Paradise" (1920), captures the lives and morality of American youth amid the Jazz Age. The protagonist, Amory Blaine, navigates romance and societal shifts. The novel's success catapulted Fitzgerald to fame, marking him as the voice of the Jazz Age generation. Amory's journey, inspired by Fitzgerald's life, unfolds from Princeton to World War I and post-war disillusionment. The characters, influenced by real individuals, reflect Fitzgerald's relationships and experiences. As a literary trailblazer, Fitzgerald explored the conflicts of his time, laying the foundation for his later masterpieces like "The Great Gatsby."

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940), an influential American novelist, epitomized the Jazz Age excesses in his iconic works. Best known for "The Great Gatsby," Fitzgerald depicted the glamour and decadence of the era, popularizing the term "Jazz Age." Born in Minnesota, he attended Princeton but left to serve in World War I. His early success with "This Side of Paradise" marked him as a prominent writer of the 1920s. Financial struggles, a turbulent marriage, and alcoholism marred his later years. Fitzgerald's literary acclaim burgeoned posthumously, solidifying him as a major 20th-century American writer.
