Fitzgerald captured the reckless spirit of New York life in the roaring twenties - the flappers, the parties, the bootleg liquor, the inevitable reckoning, and the hangover to come. In Gatsby, he created a character who reinvented himself for love - just as Fitzgerald would, not once, but twice. Fitzgerald never wrote an autobiography. He left us something better - letters. Romantic, arrogant, humble letters; letters to editors, publishers, lovers, or friends.
These letters reveal the inner thoughts of a man whose real life was never far from the fiction he wrote.BBC The Mystery of Van Goghs EarKarin Ek2017-01-02 | ...BBC The Secret World of Lewis CarrollKarin Ek2016-05-17 | ...BBC Michael Palin in Wyeth´s WorldKarin Ek2015-09-26 | Michael Palin heads for rural Pennsylvania and Maine to explore the extraordinary life and work of one of America's most popular and controversial painters, Andrew Wyeth.
