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.

In 1922, F. Scott Fitzgerald announced his decision to write "something new--something extraordinary and beautiful and simple and intricately patterned." That extraordinary, beautiful, intricately patterned, and above all, simple novel became The Great Gatsby, arguably Fitzgerald's finest work and certainly the book for which he is best known. A portrait of the Jazz Age in all of its decadence and excess, Gatsby captured the spirit of the author's generation and earned itself a permanent place in American mythology. Self-made, self-invented millionaire Jay Gatsby embodies some of Fitzgerald's--and his country's--most abiding obsessions: money, ambition, greed, and the promise of new beginnings. "Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter--tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning--" Gatsby's rise to glory and eventual fall from grace becomes a kind of cautionary tale about the American Dream.

It's also a love story, of sorts, the narrative of Gatsby's quixotic passion for Daisy Buchanan. The pair meet five years before the novel begins, when Daisy is a legendary young Louisville beauty and Gatsby an impoverished officer. They fall in love, but while Gatsby serves overseas, Daisy marries the brutal, bullying, but extremely rich Tom Buchanan. After the war, Gatsby devotes himself blindly to the pursuit of wealth by whatever means--and to the pursuit of Daisy, which amounts to the same thing. "Her voice is full of money," Gatsby says admiringly, in one of the novel's more famous descriptions. His millions made, Gatsby buys a mansion across Long Island Sound from Daisy's patrician East Egg address, throws lavish parties, and waits for her to appear. When she does, events unfold with all the tragic inevitability of a Greek drama, with detached, cynical neighbor Nick Carraway acting as chorus throughout. Spare, elegantly plotted, and written in crystalline prose, The Great Gatsby is as perfectly satisfying as the best kind of poem.

一直都不怎么喜欢菲茨杰拉德,直到喜欢上了村上春树。 在这之前,印象中的菲茨杰拉德是这样一个作家:阴柔、华美,热衷于书写贵公子和美丽的南方女郎的爱情游戏。那时候,一说起20世纪上半期的美国文学,就会想到海明威和福克纳。从他们的小说中,我看到两人的缄默和隐藏在其...

在黛西和盖茨比终于再次相会的那个午后。黛西:我们有好多年没见了。盖茨比:到11月刚好五年。(我忘了原文是否如此。我没有照原文引用。)作为在场者的尼克立刻意识到,盖茨比的应答让气氛变得无比尴尬。 一定有人对此会心一笑。 几十年后1997年的某个下午,A问B他女朋友C的...

作者:烽少 她是你久久注视,整夜整夜看守,想要用双手严严实实地遮住,好好守护的远处那一盏小星星一样孤零零的绿灯; 你不过是她天空中的浮云一片。你的远道而来,难道只为这一刻遇见她后的烟消云散? 盖茨比的伟大和悲哀就在于身在纸醉金迷,纵情享乐的时代,仍念念不忘,不...

写在前面 《了不起的盖茨比》是打动我最深、对我影响最大的五部小说之一。有时候会有朋友问我:“我也读过这本书啊,没觉得有那么出众啊,怎么会对你如此这般?”。我仔细思考过这个问题,然后很庆幸的发现,我是在自己人生的最合适的阶段读到了这本书。 如果我是在25岁第一次...

等待的哀歌 当我翻完《了不起的盖茨比》的最后一页,我莫名其妙的回忆起一年前的一个秋夜阅读果戈理《涅瓦大街》的情景。当我在涅瓦大街迷人的街灯和喧闹的人群中目睹一个纯真又孱弱的年轻人的激情,被现实的荒谬彻底击碎的时候,我感到一种难以名状的情绪令我无处遁形。庇斯卡...

盖茨比所追求的东西真得和世人所不同?即便他所追寻得是一种柏拉图式的臆想和永恒,但他将这种价值赋于在一个女子身上,难道不注定了他的天真和最后的悲剧?梦幻的破灭不在于他人,而在于自身。尼克和盖茨比都没有看清。
