Scott Fitzgerald\u003c\/b\u003e was considered the quintessential author of the Jazz Age. Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1896, Fitzgerald attended Princeton University, where he began to write seriously. After joining the U.S. Army in 1917, Fitzgerald met Zelda Sayre, whom he later married. In 1920, Fitzgerald's first novel, \u003ci\u003eThis Side of Paradise, \u003c\/i\u003e transformed Fitzgerald overnight into a literary sensation. \u003ci\u003eThe Great Gatsby\u003c\/i\u003e followed in 1925, although it was not as popular at the time as his second novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Beautiful and the Damned\u003c\/i\u003e. Fitzgerald died in 1940 of a heart attack. He was forty-four years old.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Modern Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42698256613613,"sku":"9780593133552","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_3e3b5e1c-539d-4c14-a5d3-93e8df1e4901.jpg?v=1649897384","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-great-gatsby-9780593133552","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
