This Side of Paradise
by F. Scott Fitzgerald
F. Scott Fitzgerald's first romantic and humorous novel, "This Side of Paradise", was written when the author was only twenty-three years old. This semi-autobiographical story by Princeton's handsome, condescending and idealistic student Amory Blaine received critical praise and catapulted Fitzgerald into instant fame. Readers can now enjoy a newly edited, authoritative version of this early jazz classic, based on Fitzgerald's original manuscript. In this final text, This Face of Heaven captures the rhythms and romance of Fitzgerald's youth and presents a poignant portrait of the Lost Generation.
