Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940) was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined himself. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.[1] Fitzgerald is considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s. He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, The Great Gatsby—his most famous—and Tender Is the Night. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon, was published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age.
The Great Gatsby has been the basis for numerous films of the same name, spanning nearly 90 years; 1926, 1949, 1974, 2000, and an upcoming 2013 adaptation. In 1958 his life from 1937–1940 was dramatized in Beloved Infidel.
Generally considered to be F. Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel, The Great Gatsby is a consummate summary of the 'roaring twenties' and a devastating expose of the 'Jazz Age'. Through the narration of Nick Carraway, the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions which lined the Long Island shore of the American seaboard in the 1920s, to encounter Nick's cousin Daisy, Jay Gatsby and the dark mystery which surrounds him. The Great Gatsby is an undisputed classic of American literature from the period following the First World War and is one of the great novels of the twentieth century.

我們都曾堅持過什麼,也許已經忘記,也許仍舊銘記卻無力實現。 用瞭一周多的時間把這本書看瞭三遍,對於從來不看打著世界名著標簽的書的自己,對於已經變得懶惰又惡俗的自己實屬不易。 這僅僅是一個夢碎的故事,所有的情節所有的人物所有的跌宕也不過是為碼頭盡頭的那盞綠燈...
評分 評分如果不是想要為去電影院看無字幕的原版片做pre-reading,我大概是永遠不會去讀這樣一本標題樸實且並不怎麼有吸引力的小說的吧。 這本來是個簡單的故事,落魄的年輕軍官蓋茨比經過機遇與奮鬥成為瞭東岸最富有的人,他想要的一切不過是挽迴當年的愛人,而這一切因為愛人的...
評分一直都不怎麼喜歡菲茨傑拉德,直到喜歡上瞭村上春樹。 在這之前,印象中的菲茨傑拉德是這樣一個作傢:陰柔、華美,熱衷於書寫貴公子和美麗的南方女郎的愛情遊戲。那時候,一說起20世紀上半期的美國文學,就會想到海明威和福剋納。從他們的小說中,我看到兩人的緘默和隱藏在其...
評分在黛西和蓋茨比終於再次相會的那個午後。黛西:我們有好多年沒見瞭。蓋茨比:到11月剛好五年。(我忘瞭原文是否如此。我沒有照原文引用。)作為在場者的尼剋立刻意識到,蓋茨比的應答讓氣氛變得無比尷尬。 一定有人對此會心一笑。 幾十年後1997年的某個下午,A問B他女朋友C的...

我大概知道村上春樹為什麼喜歡他瞭
評分讀完之後有種非常沉重的空曠感,一切都消失瞭,那些曾經湧嚮蓋茨比的party的人們不計其數,其中卻沒有一人願意參加他的葬禮。期待電影。
評分英文版的比中文版的好看太多瞭。隻是我是在不明白Gatzby愛Daisy什麼,能緊張到那份上。
評分菲茨傑拉德怎麼那麼會用英語寫作,這真是美得無法翻譯的文字,詞都被用活瞭。讀英文比讀中文更覺得悲涼。好的作品果真經得起反復琢磨,這不,我打算一個個去看評論瞭。
評分'So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.'
