Review
'Arriving at an accurate and authoritative edition of Fitzgerald could hardly be more worthwhile, and West has done it superlatively. ... [he] is doing a tremendously valuable service to Fitzgerald in particular and American literature in general, and we are all in his debt.' Scott Donaldson, The F. Scott Fitzgerald Review

Very Good in Wrappers. 0451526104. Introduction By Jay Parini. 287 pages. paperback. CE2610. Cover: Archive Photos. keywords: Signet Classic America Literature Paperback 20th Century. DESCRIPTION - THIS SIDE OF PARADISE is the accomplished and heartbreaking first novel that catapulted F. Scott Fitzgerald to literary fame at the age of twenty - three. Considered scandalous (and brilliant) when it was published in 1920, it describes the intellectual, spiritual, and sexual education of young Amory Blaine in the tumultuous America of the early l9OOs. Highly sophisticated yet hopelessly romantic, Amory flounders from prep school to Princeton to glittering Jazz Age New York, confident that he is destined for greatness but unsure how to go about it. Fitzgerald's razor - sharp re - creation of a defiant, disillusioned generation 'grown up to find all Gods dead, all wars fought, all faiths in man shaken' makes This Side of Paradise a timeless autobiographical novel of youth and alienation. It moves from tenderness to cynicism to hope with the grace and power that stamp Fitzgerald as one of the greatest of American writers. inventory #31461. Seller Inventory # z31461
