Fitzgerald is many reader's favorite writer. The second volume is presented here and includes more than two dozen collected stories written for periodicals of the time.

The stories in this volume form a commentary on the novels as Fitzgerald experimented with themes and characters later incorporated into his novels. FSF said of them: "The price was high, right up with Kipling, because there was one little drop of something, not blood, not tears, but me more intimately than these, in every story, it was the extra I had." Each short is enjoyable, some are lighter fare, but always there was Fitzgerald, the poet and spellbinder, in each. 411 pages. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.

Adjacent to title page: "I have asked a lot of my emotions - one hundred and twenty stories. The price was high, right up with Kipling, because there was one little drop of something, not blood, not a tear, but me more intimately than these, in every story, it was the extra I had. Now it has gone and I am just like you now" - Our April Letter, The Notebooks of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Throughout the twenties and thirties, F. Scott Fitzgerald was widely know as a writer of short stories about his generation's defiance of conventional social and sexual roles. Even better known for these stories than the novels that have ensured his immortality, he attracted thousands of readers to the mass-circulation magzines with his tales of sensual, self-reliant women and romantically idealistic men. By 1929, the Saturday Evening Post, than America's toughest market for stories was paying him 4,000 a story. This volume contains fifty previously uncollected stories, many of which have never appeared in Great Britan before and one of which never published prior. Editor Mathew Bruccoli has written a general intrroduction to the stories and notes for each one, placing them in a framework of FSF's career. "The purpose of a fiction story is to creat a passionate curiosity and then to gratify it unexpectedly, orgasmicaly, " wrote Fitzgerald in his notebooks. The stories of the the twenties are characterized by the their ebulliance, those of th ethiries by a brooding mood as Fitzgerald tried to comeme to terms with the social displacement of that decade. Together they form not only a fascinating history of the period but also a commentary on hhis novels, for Fitzgerald experimented with characters and thems which later uused in the longer works.
