Book excerpt: Babylon Revisited and Other Stories is a collection of Fitzgerald's ten best-known short stories written between 1920 and 1937. The Stories are set in the year after the stock market crash of 1929, just after what Fitzgerald called the "Jazz Age". Brief flashbacks take place in the Jazz age itself. Also it shows several references to the depression, and how the character had to adapt his life to it. Much of it is based on the author's own experiences. The story Babylon Revisited is based on a true incident regarding Fitzgerald, his daughter "Scottie", his sister-in-law Rosalind and her husband Newman Smith, on whom Marion and Lincoln Peters are based. Rosalind and Newman had not been able financially to live as well as Scott and Zelda had lived during the 1920s, and they had always regarded Scott as an irresponsible drunkard whose obsession with high living was responsible for Zelda's mental problems. When Zelda suffered a breakdown and was committed to a sanitarium in Switzerland, Rosalind felt that Scott was unfit to raise their daughter and that Rosalind and Newman should adopt her. Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (1896 -1940) was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigmatic writings of the Jazz Age. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century. Fitzgerald is considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'Babylon Revisited & Other Tales' is a collection of short stories that capture the essence of the Jazz Age in 1920s America. Fitzgerald's literary style is characterized by vivid imagery, complex characters, and sharp social commentary. The stories in this collection delve into themes of love, loss, and the pursuit of the American Dream, showcasing Fitzgerald's keen insight into the human condition. 'Babylon Revisited', the titular story, follows the struggles of a man trying to rebuild his life after the excesses of his past. The other tales in the collection explore similar themes with a mix of nostalgia and melancholy. F. Scott Fitzgerald, known for his iconic novel 'The Great Gatsby', drew inspiration from his own experiences and observations of the wealthy elite during the Roaring Twenties. His writing reflects the glamour and decadence of the era, as well as the underlying disillusionment and societal changes taking place. Fitzgerald's personal struggles with fame and fortune also influenced his work, leading him to examine the darker side of the American Dream. I highly recommend 'Babylon Revisited & Other Tales' to readers who appreciate richly layered storytelling, evocative prose, and a glimpse into the tumultuous past of America. Fitzgerald's timeless exploration of love, loss, and redemption will resonate with audiences seeking depth and complexity in their reading choices.
