Book Synopsis
This is a fresh and compelling study of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s intellectual friendship with Edmund Wilson, H. L. Mencken, and Gerald Murphy. Fitzgerald was shaped through his engagements with key literary and artistic figures in the 1920s. This book is about their influence - and also about the ways that Fitzgerald defended his own ideas about writing. Influence was always secondary to independence.
