Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. A first edition, first printing of The Stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald: A Selection of 28 Stories, by F. Scott Fitzgerald, with an introduction by Malcolm Cowley. Published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, in 1951, this important posthumous colle…ction brings together twenty-eight of Fitzgerald's finest short stories, carefully selected and introduced by noted literary critic Malcolm Cowley. Spanning the breadth of Fitzgerald's career, the volume showcases his remarkable talent for the short story, from the glamour and ambition of the Jazz Age to the more reflective and emotionally complex works of his later years. Cowley's insightful introduction places Fitzgerald's fiction within the broader landscape of twentieth-century American literature, making this one of the most significant early collections of the author's short fiction. The book is in Near Fine condition, with a tight binding, clean pages, and only light signs of handling. The original dust jacket is in Very Good condition, displaying light edge wear consistent with age while remaining bright, attractive, and fully intact. The jacket is protected in a clear archival Mylar cover, which will remain with the book. An attractive collector's copy of a true first edition, first printing, featuring one of the earliest and most influential collections of Fitzgerald's short fiction. A wonderful addition to collections of F. Scott Fitzgerald, American literature, Jazz Age fiction, and twentieth-century literary first editions.
