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.
