[美] F·Scott Fitzgerald   

Overview

This is the story of Amory Blaine-a handsome,wealthy,and spoiled young Princeton student.Closely mirroring Fitzgerald's own experiences at school and abroad,Blaine's journey from prep school to college to the First World -War is the story of "the lost generation."Cynical and world-weary at the age of thirty,Blaine is the symbol of what Fitzgerald described as" a new gen-eration grown up to find all Gods dead,all wars fought,all faiths in man shaken."
