On Booze by F. Scott Fitzgerald, ISBN 9781447202479

> Wine & Beverages Books > General Books

A beautifully packaged collection of F Scott Fitzgerald's best writing about drink makes this a most intoxicating gift!

"First you take a drink", F Scott Fitzgerald once noted, "then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you." Fitzgerald wrote alcohol into almost every one of his stories. On Booze gathers debutantes and dandies, rowdy jazz musicians, lost children and ragtime riff-raff into a newly compiled collection taken from The Crack-Up, and other works. On Booze portrays "The Jazz Age" as Fitzgerald experienced it: roaring, rambunctious, and lush with quite a hangover.

About the Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born in 1896. He was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined himself. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.

Fitzgerald is considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s. He finished four novels, This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender is the Night and his most famous, The Great Gatsby. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon was published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age.

Novels such as The Great Gatsby and Tender is the Night were made into films, and in 1958 his life from 1937 1940 was dramatized in Beloved Infidel.

He died on December 21, 1940.
