Scott Fitzgerald wrote before he began work on what would become his great American novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Great Gatsby, \u003c\/i\u003e have been collected in one volume. Originally published between 1919 and 1923, these twenty-six stories--many of which appeared in the \u003ci\u003eSaturday Evening Post\u003c\/i\u003e and two earlier collections, \u003ci\u003eFlappers and Philosophers and Tales of the Jazz Age\u003c\/i\u003e--document the striking development of Fitzgerald's professionalism and short-story craftsmanship during his twenties. Edited by Matthew J. Bruccoli, the foremost expert on Fitzgerald, the annotated and illustrated collection reproduces period artwork--including magazine illustrations, advertisements, and photographs--that provides a rich contextual backdrop for understanding the ways American life shaped Fitzgerald's fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-1242096\"\u003eF.
