Scott Fitzgerald: Novels and Stories 1920â"1922 (The Library of America, 2000), edited by Jackson R. Bryer, Professor Emeritus of English at the University of Maryland, is the authoritative gathering of Fitzgerald's early work â" the concentrated burst of fiction that in the space of just two years made him the most celebrated young writer in America and the defining literary voice of the Jazz Age. At the outset of what Fitzgerald himself called "the greatest, the gaudiest spree in history," these four volumes collectively offer the fullest literary expression of one of the most fascinating eras in American life, mastering a glittering aphoristic prose and keen social observation that would distinguish all his subsequent writing while sounding, beneath the era's wild cacophony, a plaintive strain of lament for the wasted potential of youth. This Side of Paradise (1920), offering in its Princeton chapters the most enduring portrait of college life in American literature, gave Fitzgerald the early success that defined and haunted him for the rest of his career; Flappers and Philosophers (1920) gathers accomplished short stories including "Bernice Bobs Her Hair" and "The Ice Palace"; The Beautiful and Damned (1922) traces the excruciating dissipation of the self-styled aristocrat Anthony Patch and his beautiful wife Gloria; and Tales of the Jazz Age (1922) contains the novella "May Day" and the celebrated fable "A Diamond as Big as the Ritz.".

Condition: Very Good. Later printing. Inscribed by Fitzgerald to Carma Freeman on the front free endpaper: "Best wishes ('Now you just go right to sleep') from Old Insomniac Fitzgerald to his old childhood nurse, Mrs. Freeman." A Very Good copy. Publisher's blindstamped dark blue-green cloth. Some edgewear and fraying. Minor toning to endpapers. This copy of This Side of Paradise is a rare survival of the summer of 1934, one of the most difficult periods of Fitzgerald's life. At the time, Zelda was hospitalized at Sheppard-Pratt while Fitzgerald himself spent the summer in and out of Johns Hopkins Hospital. As Fitzgerald's friend, H.L. Mencken, wrote in his diary in June of that year: "the case of F. Scott Fitzgerald has become distressing. He is boozing in a wild manner and has become a nuisance. His wife, Zelda, who has been insane for years, is now confined at the Sheppard-Pratt Hospital, and he is living in Park Avenue with his little daughter, Scottie." While out of the hospital and recuperating at home, Fitzgerald's chilhood nurse Carma Kaufman Freeman cared for him. He inscribed his copy of This Side of Paradise to Freeman during that summer, employing her comforting phrase ("Now you just go right to sleep"), a line Fitzgerald would later echo in his 1936 essay "The Crack-Up." First published in 1920, This Side of Paradise is Fitzgerald's somewhat autobiographical debut novel about a midwestern boy who goes east for his education at Princeton. Cobbled together from several bits and pieces of writing and rushed to print in an attempt by the lovestruck twenty-two-year-old Fitzgerald to entice Zelda with a life of literary celebrity, the couple wed the week after publication and began life among the cosmopolitan literati traversing Europe after the war. Yet, to believe Fitzgerald's assertion that the book was only "a Romance and a Reading List" is to oversimplify its central themes. "When Amory Blaine proclaimed all wars fought, all gods dead, all faiths in man shaken, the generation emerging in 1920 thought it a battle cry, a celebration of license and indulgence, and made This Side of Paradise their bible" (Gross). In this sense, the novel not only launched Fitzgerald's career and allowed for his marriage, it also founded the key tensions that would shape all of his future work - the push and pull between being a member of the Lost Generation with all its cynicism, and his deep moralism and his "need to impose order on a chaotic world.to struggle with love as both a unifying and divisive force" (Gross). Very Good. Signed.
