These sumptuous new hardback editions mark the 70th anniversary of Fitzgerald's death.
Encompassing the very best of F. Scott Fitzgerald's short fiction, this collection spans his career, from the early stories of the glittering Jazz Age, through the lost hopes of the thirties, to the last, twilight decade of his life.
