Product Description
"The Beautiful and Damned", first published in 1922, 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 Caf? Society. As with all of his other novels, it is a brilliant character study and is also an early account of the complexities of marriage and intimacy that were further explored in "Tender Is the Night." The book is believed to be largely based on Fitzgerald's relationship and marriage with Zelda Fitzgerald.
Gloria Gilbert, bellezza del Kansas, fa strage di cuori a New York. Anthony Patch, raffinato erede di un miliardario bigotto, contempla la vita dalla sazieta' dei suoi venticinque anni. I due si innamorano e si scambiano il primo bacio in un taxi che attraversa Central Park. Sono belli e innocenti, ma il loro non sar? un destino facile, turbato dall'alcol e dall'avidita' di denaro.
