    <![CDATA[Written between 1920 &amp; 1937, when F. Scott Fitzgerald was at the height of his creative powers, these ten lyric tales represent some of the author's finest fiction. In them, he creates vivid, timeless characters--a dissatisfied southern belle seeking adventure in the north; the tragic hero of the title story who lost more than money in the stock market; giddy &amp; dissipated young men &amp; women of the interwar period. From the lazy town of Tarleton, Georgia, to the glittering cosmopolitan centers of New York &amp; Paris, he brings the society of the Lost Generation to life in these masterfully crafted gems, showcasing the many gifts of one of our most popular writers.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Fitzgerald is an incredibly writer; I love his similitudes and rich evocations of his adjectives. But on this, my third time through, it felt as if there were a rich and annoying uncle in the room. He might speak well, and have insight on the deepest topics of life, but sooner or later he becomes si...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/53387179">more...</a>]]></body>
