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) è stato uno dei più grandi scrittori americani del XX secolo. È noto soprattutto per il romanzo Il grande Gatsby, nel quale ha saputo catturare gli eccessi e la disillusione dell'epoca del jazz. La sua prosa brillante, il suo acuto commento sociale e la sua esplorazione del sogno americano lo hanno reso una voce fondamentale della letteratura americana. Oltre a Il grande Gatsby, le sue opere più importanti sono Tenera è la notte e Da questa parte del paradiso.
