Autorenporträt

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) was an American author and screenwriter. Intent on writing from an early age, Fitzgerald left Princeton without graduating, joined the army and finished his first novel certain he'd was about to see action in World War I. His life was marked by steady and public struggles with alcohol, finances, and the vagaries of fame, and his marriage to Zelda Sayre was alternately a solace and a battleground. For many his larger than life persona obscured the depth of his skill, but his lucid and lyrical style depicted emotional truth as well as it did the colorful world of the Jazz Age. While his initial writings made him a literary star in the 1920s, his reputation faltered in the years following and it was only after his death that his work achieved the recognition and esteem that it has today.
