Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 - December 21, 1940) was an American novelist, essayist, and short story writer. He is best known for his four novels—This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, The Great Gatsby, and Tender Is The Night—depicting the flamboyance and excess of the Jazz Age. Fitzgerald is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century. In this recording, Fitgerald reads from Shakespeare's Othello, John Keats' Ode to a Nightingale, and John Masefield's On Growing Old.
This morality tale by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a devastating satire of the nouveaux riches and New York's nightlife, of reckless ambition and squandered talent, and a shattering portrait of a marriage fueled by alcohol and wasted by wealth.
Bernice has rare beauty and wealth, but is undeniably socially awkward. Her cousin Marjorie does her best to make Bernice into a social vampire. Being a socialite in America in the 1920s, it seems to her that some of the more archaic feminine ideals need to go. Bernice's long, luxurious hair may need to go, too.
The dowdy Bernice becomes a 'society vampire' after guidance from her popular cousin Marjorie. But when the new party girl Bernice begins to threaten her cousin's own popularity, Marjorie lays a fiendish trap for her gullible cousin.
Here is a story celebrating the riotous, cocktail-swilling, 'Bright Young Things' of the interwar years. Laurel Lefkow reads F Scott Fitzgerald's classic Jazz Age tale set in 1920s California, in which revenge comes in the shape of a daring new hairstyle.
F. Scott Fitzgerald, author of The Beautiful and the Damned, Tender is the Night, and The Great Gatsby, is regarded as one of the 20th century's greatest writers. His stories epitomised the Jazz Age, which he defined as a 'generation grown up to find all gods dead, all wars fought, all faiths in man shaken'. Abridgment by Richard Hamilton. Produced by Justine Willett.
Narración del ajetreado viaje de F.S. Fitzgerald y su mujer Zelda, en un viejo Marmon de 1917 de segunda mano, desde Westport Connecticut a Montgomery (Alabama).
Jay Gatsby, el caballero que reina sobre West Egg, el anfitrión de las noches sin tregua, pero también el triunfador marcado por el trágico sino de una soledad no pretendida, es el arquetipo de esos años veinte que se iniciaron con la Prohibición y discurrieron en el gangsterismo y la corrupción política organizada. Protagonista de una década que culminaría con la catástrofe de 1929, su imagen de esplendor no hace sino anunciar un drama inevitable. Triunfo de perpetua juventud, brillantez animada por el exceso, fueron también las constantes de la vida de Francis Scott Fitzgerald, quien nos ofrece en El gran Gatsby una de sus obras mayores.
Nueva York, años 20. En la alta sociedad norteamericana, llama la atención la presencia de Jay Gatsby, un hombre misterioso e inmensamente rico, al que todos consideran un advenedizo, lo que no impide que acudan a sus fastuosas fiestas en su gran mansión de Long Island. Gatsby vive obsesionado con la idea de recuperar al amor que dejó escapar años atrás. Para ello se hará amigo de su vecino recién llegado, el joven Nick Carraway.
Cuando F. Scott Fitzgerald escribió El Gran Gatsby al principio de los años veinte, el sueño americano ya estaba en decadencia. Originalmente estaba basado en la idea de que la búsqueda de la felicidad no solo involucraba el éxito material sino también el crecimiento moral y espiritual. Para el tiempo de Fitzgerald el sueño se había enfocado increíblemente en el dinero y el placer - un fenómeno que le era muy familiar al rico escritor.
3 of Fitzgerald's early short stories: Dalyrimple Goes Wrong; Jemina, The Mountain Girl; Tarquin of Cheapside. Each story is fascinating in its own way, with roots that lead to his novels and others. His writing is like champagne, even early. Dalyrimple has some of the roots Dreiser may have used in An American Tragedy; Jemina is the child of Mark Twain southwestern humor; Tarquin is unique and better listened to and read than discussed. The last chapter provides approximately 30 thoughts, quotations, and witty remarks of Fitzgerald.
