Today in 1925 one of the greatest novels of the 1920’s was published: The Great Gatsby!

Here we have a photo from the Billy Rose Theatre Collection of F. Scott circa 1937, just as he met Sheila Graham, the co-author of Beloved Infidel.

(On a side note: Although F. Scott may not be able to vote for NYPL to win a Webby - admittedly he probably would have no idea what it is - you can! )

“The Beautiful and Damned” by F. Scott Fitzgerald. First published in 1922, The Beautiful and Damned was F. Scott Fitzgerald’s second novel. It tells the story of Anthony Patch (a 1920s socialite and presumptive heir to a tycoon’s fortune), his relationship with his wife Gloria, his service in the army, and alcoholism. The novel provides an excellent portrait of the Eastern elite as the Jazz Age begins its ascent, engulfing all classes into what will soon be known as Café Society. The book is believed to be largely based on Fitzgerald’s relationship and marriage with Zelda Fitzgerald.
