Tales of the Jazz Age is a collection of short stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald, one of the most well-known Jazz Age writers whose works have stood the test of time. These stories are separated into several themes, ranging from the fantastical to the more realistic.

In one of the most beloved works of 20th-century literature, audiences step into the decadent but tumultuous life of Nick Carraway, a young man looking to make his way in the bustling New York City business world. He soon meets Gatsby, his mysterious neighbor known for throwing extravagant galas in his gilded home. Jay Gatsby is a man of extravagant taste and has great wealth but only wants what he can’t have - Daisy Buchanan, a flighty debutante married to an unfaithful husband.

Fitzgerald's debut novel, This Side of Paradise, tells of a handsome young man, Amory Blaine, whose romantic relationships with women are touched with a reflection of his own narcissism. First published in 1920, it covers Amory's life at Princeton and later as a soldier during World War I. The central character is loosely based on Fitzgerald himself, and the female characters are mostly based on actual women in his life as well. The book was a solid success and helped Fitzgerald persuade Jazz Age icon Zelda Sayres, fictionalized in the novel, to marry him.

In the early 20th century, Anthony Patch, a socialite and presumptive heir to a tycoon's fortune, finds himself falling madly in love with another socialite. Self-absorbed and vain, Gloria Gilbert jumps at the chance to marry Anthony, and the pair embark on a downward spiral that illustrates their selfishness and leaves them both unfulfilled.

The year is 1922, and young Nick Carraway moves to the village of West Egg, where he discovers that his neighbor is the eclectic millionaire Jay Gatsby. As he and Gatsby become acquainted, Nick is thrown into a world full of dazzling parties, unrequited love, and unchecked idealism. Gatsby, surrounded by riches, yearns for the love of a woman who chose another man. He waits for her every night, using a green light at the end of his dock to call out to her from across the water.

Perhaps the greatest American novel written, The Great Gatsby is set in New York, in 1922, in a rich, spoiled world with crime and bootlegging in the background.

Some consider The Great Gatsby the greatest American novel ever written about love, dreams, business, bootlegging, Wall Street, the Midwest, and the East, as well as Yale, prep schools, the rich, and more. F. Scott Fitzgerald followed up with Tender Is the Night, also considered equally compelling.

This great American novel describes the lavish lifestyle, along with the cruelty and ugliness, of Long Island society during the Jazz Age. Told through the eyes of Nick Carraway, the book follows events surrounding Jay Gatsby, who, despite his enormous wealth, longs desperately for those things that money can't buy.

Return to the turbulent Jazz Age and of Prohibition, the summer of 1922, as Nick Carraway relates the story of his cousin, the beautiful but married Daisy Buchanan, and of her affair with her former lover, the mysterious Jay Gatsby. One of the greatest of American novels, it is a story of an age of excess and rebellion, of desires of the flesh and those of the dollar, all ending in tragedy.

Anthony Patch is a young socialite living in the exciting world of New York City in the early years of the Jazz Age. He has graduated from Harvard but has remarkably few accomplishments and spends most of his time pretending to work on a novel rather than truly creating anything. When he is introduced to another socialite, Gloria Gilbert, he is inspired to jump into the next phase of his life by marrying her despite being hesitant to share his comfortable life with another. Their married life is full of conflict and tension, as Gloria expects to have a fully funded, glamorous life.

Pubblicato nel 1934 dopo quasi dieci di stesure e diverse rielaborazioni, il romanzo conobbe una strana vicenda editoriale. Fitzgerald difatti, convinto di avere commesso un errore strutturale, raccontando "il vero inizio" retrospettivamente, decise di rimettere mano alla struttura del libro, riordinando gli eventi in senso cronologico sulla sua copia cartacea. Pur pubblicata nel 1948, questa versione sarebbe stata in seguito dichiarata "apocrifa", per infine ritornare alla versione del 1934.
