A comprehensive study of the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald, related in two-year chapters by twenty-three leading writers on the Jazz Age author

"There never was a good biography of a novelist," F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote in The Crack-Up. "There couldn't be. He is too many people, if he's any good." Fitzgerald, a good novelist by any measure, has tested this challenge to the biographer's art. A new star illuminating the literary scene; a chronicler of the Jazz Age in all its brilliance and tarnish; a romantic symbol of the American century; an acute observer of society's best and worst, and of his own star-crossed career; a midlife burnout at forty-four, leaving an unfinished masterpiece in his wake—he was a man of many aspects, a writer whose complexity and multitudes this composite biography finally aptly portrays.
