The Beautiful and Damned and Other Stories

Enter the world of America’s upper class during the beginning of the Jazz Age. 

Loosely based on F. Scott Fitzgerald’s relationship with his wife, Zelda, The Beautiful and Damned centers around a young East Coast socialite who is heir to his grandfather’s fortune and lacks motivation to pursue a meaningful career. In his attempt to find his place in society, he loses himself to alcoholism, neglects his wife, and struggles with the realities of life. This volume also includes seven short stories Fitzgerald published in the early 1920s, including “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” and elegant art deco endpapers.
