Francis Scott Fitzgerald remains the definitive chronicler of the Jazz Age—a term he himself popularized. Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, and educated at Princeton, Fitzgerald's life and work were inextricably linked to the glittering, restless energy of the 1920s. He became a literary sensation at the age of twenty-three with his debut, This Side of Paradise, capturing the spirit of a generation that had grown up to find "all Gods dead, all wars fought, all faiths in man shaken." Fitzgerald's prose is celebrated for its lyrical beauty, emotional depth, and haunting nostalgia. His masterpiece, The Great Gatsby (1925), is often cited as the ultimate American novel, offering a profound critique of the American Dream through themes of wealth, class, and the elusive nature of the past.
