About the author

Francis Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) byl americký spisovatel, jehož díla se stala symbolem "jazzového v¿ku". Proslavil se svými romány i povídkami, v nichž zachycoval bohatství, touhy a zklamání své generace. Jeho nejznám¿jší knihou je Velký Gatsby (1925), považovaný za jeden z nejv¿tších román¿ 20. století. Fitzgerald¿v styl se vyznäuje lyrickou elegancí a pronikavou psychologií postav. P¿estože se za jeho života potýkal s finan¿ními problémy a uznání získal až posmrtn¿, dnes je vnímán jako jeden z nejvýznamn¿jších amerických autor¿ moderní literatury.
