No matter how beautiful or brilliant a girl may be, the reputation of not being frequently cut in on makes her position at a dance unfortunate. Perhaps boys prefer her company to that of the butterflies with whom they dance a dozen times an but, youth in this jazz-nourished generation is temperamentally restless, and the idea of fox-trotting more than one full fox trot with the same girl is distasteful, not to say odious. When it comes to several dances and the intermissions between she can be quite sure that a young man, once relieved, will never tread on her wayward toes again.

Autorenporträt
F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) var einn merkasti rithöfundur Bandaríkjanna á 20. öld. Hann er þekktastur fyrir skáldsögu sína The Great Gatsby og fangar óhóf og vonbrigðum djassaldarinnar í verkum sínum. Snilldar prósar hans, skarpar félagslegar athugasemdir og könnun á ameríska draumnum hafa gert hann að afgerandi rödd í bandarískum bókmenntum. Auk The Great Gatsby eru athyglisverð verk hans meðal annars Tender Is the Night og This Side of Paradise.
