Synopsis

Webster's paperbacks take advantage of the fact that classics are frequently assigned readings in English courses. By using a running English-to-Croatian thesaurus at the bottom of each page, this edition of This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald was edited for three audiences. The first includes Croatian-speaking students enrolled in an English Language Program (ELP), an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) program, an English as a Second Language Program (ESL), or in a TOEFL or TOEIC preparation program. The second audience includes English-speaking students enrolled in bilingual education programs or Croatian speakers enrolled in English-speaking schools. The third audience consists of students who are actively building their vocabularies in Croatian in order to take foreign service, translation certification, Advanced Placement (AP) or similar examinations. By using the Webster's Croatian Thesaurus Edition when assigned for an English course, the reader can enrich their vocabulary in anticipation of an examination in Croatian or English.

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

Book Description

This critical edition offers an accurate, fully annotated text based on Fitzgerald's original manuscript, explanatory notes, textual apparatus and appendices.
