«A este lado del paraíso» is the first novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (303 pages, in Spanish).
The novel follows Amory Blaine, a young man from a good family, from his childhood and time at Princeton University to adult life, in the midst of the «época del jazz». It blends sentimental awakening with ambition, loss of illusions, and the clash with the values of American high society in the 1920s.
This edition, translated into Spanish by Juan Benet, belongs to the El Libro de Bolsillo-Literatura collection (no. 5636). The novel was originally published in 1920.
Aimed at readers of classic American fiction, particularly those interested in the so-called «generación perdida».
Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald, widely known as F. Scott Fitzgerald or simply Scott Fitzgerald, was an American novelist, essayist, and short story writer. He is most notable for his novels depicting the flamboyance and excess of the Jazz Age, a term that he popularized in his short story collection Tales of the Jazz Age. He published four novels, four story collections, and 164 short stories. He achieved transient success and fortune in the 1920s, but did not receive critical acclaim until after his death. He is now widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.
