Status Updates From A este lado del paraíso

This is a frightfully funny examination of a young man growing up prior to WWI and into the roaring twenties. I love the anecdotal episodes and Fitzgerald is such a fun writer. I can’t help but contrast his concept of Amory’s college years against Shirley Jackson’s Hangsaman, though. Amory expects and is poised to inherit the world where Natalie is barely keeping it together.
