This Side of Paradise

　　The debut of an American original.

　　Here is the accomplished first novel that catapulted F. Scott Fitzgerald to literary fame-at the age of 23. It follows the education-intellectual, spiritual, and sexual-of young Amory Blaine.

　　F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) published This Side of Paradise in 1920 and that same year married Zelda Sayre. Fitzgerald was one of the major literary voices in the twentieth century, the writer of such masterpieces as The Great Gatsby, The Beautiful and the Damned, and Tender Is the Night.
