FITZGERALD F SCOTT FLAPPERS AND PHILOSOPHERS TH...

F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in 1896 in St Paul  Minnesota  and went to Princeton University
which he left in 1917 to join the army. Fitzgerald was said to have epitomised the Jazz Age  an
age inhabited by a generation he defined as 'grown up to find all Gods dead  all wars fought 
all faiths in man shaken'. In 1920 he married Zelda Sayre. Their destructive relationship and
her subsequent mental breakdowns became a major influence on his writing. Among his
publications were five novels  This Side of Paradise  The Great Gatsby  The Beautiful and
Damned  Tender is the Night and The Love of the Last Tycoon. Fitzgerald died suddenly in 1940.
