Fitzgerald: All The Sad Young Men
Fitzgerald: <I>All The Sad Young Men</I>
£27.00
GBPThis volume of the Cambridge Fitzgerald Edition includes the original nine stories selected by Fitzgerald for All the Sad Young Men, together with eleven additional stories, published between 1925 and 1928, which were not collected by Fitzgerald during his lifetime. This edition is based on extensive surviving manuscripts and typescripts. The volume contains a scholarly introduction, historical notes, a textual apparatus, illustrations, and appendices. The complex history of composition for 'The Rich Boy' is untangled, and Fitzgerald's thorough revision of 'Winter Dreams' is described. Important passages of sexual innuendo and tabloid-style scandal in 'Jacob's Ladder', 'The Love Boat', and 'Magnetism' - removed by editors at the Saturday Evening Post - are restored to the Cambridge texts.
- The most authoritative text of Fitzgerald's third collection of short stories with eleven uncollected stories
- Includes three of Fitzgerald's most famous stories: 'The Rich Boy', 'Winter Dreams' and 'Absolution'
- Fully annotated with complete textual apparatus
