Finally, the Fitzgerald piece! This was so great, got me itching to read his biography.

Ha! Glad to deliver. I have another one coming next week about The Last Tycoon, his book about Hollywood, then a brief intermission with Didion before my Hemingway / Fitzgerald frenemy crescendo. Stay tuned!

I know Fitzy means a great deal to you; would be curious to read a think-piece on the Lucey/Scott dialectic, and the ways in which self can be glimpsed in an author's work 😅 I'm more in Ernest's corner, so can't wait to see how the "frenemy crescendo" plays out.

Highly recommend a survey of Fitz's short fiction, and another pass at "Tender Is The Night" if it's been awhile.
