F.S.Fitzgeral "The Great Gatsby"

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born on 24 September 1896 in Saint Paul, Minnesota in the Mid-West of America. At the time of his birth America was changing into a country of growing cities and technological changes were happening. He was educated at Princeton University but he was a very poor student and never finished his degree.
The reason he was such a bad student was because of his interest in literature. He read and wrote very much at the University and had little time left for studying.
By the time F. Scott Fitzgerald published The Great Gatsby in 1925, he had already amassed an impressive literary resume. From his first commercial publication of the short story, "Babes in the Woods" at age 23 to "The Sensible Thing" at age 28, Fitzgerald published fourteen short stories, one play, two collections of short stories, and two novels. His first novel, This Side of Paradise, made Fitzgerald a celebrity. The second, "The Beautiful and the Damned," was serialized in Metropolitan Magazine. …
