Francis Scott Fitzgerald
Francis Scott Fitzgerald (Saint Paul, 1896 - Hollywood, 1940). Considerado uno de los más importantes escritores estadounidenses del siglo xx y portavoz de la «Generación Perdida». Su obra refleja el desencanto de los privilegiados jóvenes de su generación, aquellos norteamericanos nacidos en la última década del siglo xix, a quienes les tocó madurar durante la Primera Guerra Mundial y que arrastraban su lasitud entre el jazz y la ginebra. Sus obras están escritas con un estilo elegante y situadas en fascinantes decorados. Destacan A este lado del paraíso (1920), Suave es la noche (1934) y, por supuesto, El gran Gatsby (1925).

Chapter 1
In the millennium an educational genius will write a book to be given to every young man on the date of his disillusion.
