Babylon Revisited

Fitzgerald, F. Scott

F. Scott Fitzgerald was the most celebrated chronicler of the Jazz Age. At the time of his death, he believed he was an alcoholic failure; but he received posthumous acclaim as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.

This collection brings together some of his finest stories, including ’The Curious Tale of Benjamin Button’; ’Winter Dreams’, a melancholy thwarted love story that anticipated The Great Gatsby, and ’Babylon Revisited’, set the year after the 1929 stock market crash, when the Jazz Age sounded its last. ’His talent was as natural as the pattern that was made by the dust on a butterfly’s wings’ Ernest Hemingway
