This Side of Paradise
Opis
Increasingly disillusioned by the rejection slips that studded the walls of his room and his on/off engagement to Zelda Sayre, Fitzgerald began his third revision of the novel that was to become This Side of Paradise.
The story of a young manrsquo;s painful sexual and intellectual awakening that echoes Fitzgeraldrsquo;s own career, it is also a portrait of the lost generation that followed straight on from the First World War, lsquo;grown up to find all Gods dead, all wars fought, all faiths in man shakenrsquo; and wanting money and success more than anything else.
