About This Item
Cavaye Place, London: Picador - Pan Books, 1981. First softcover edition. Pictorial wraps, some shelf, corner wear. Pages good, no writing; moderate corner curl. Bind good. 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 Saturday Evening Post paid Fitzgerald an incredible four thousand dollars for each story in 1929. 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. First Edition.. Soft Cover. Good.
