F. Scott Fitzgerald, the leader of the 1920's Jazz Age, drunk with fame, suddenly found himself cast int.o the abyss by the 1930's. The experience of the man whom fortune deserted in the most desperate period of his life involved hubris which accompanies any worthwhile tragedy, which is what his life was. His early fame had so diminished that in hie later life people were surprised that he was still alive. Be died with none of his works in print., but the man forgotten by his own contemporaries is now more widely read and revered than many of those same contemporaries. |
