This Side of Paradise is the debut novel of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Published in
1920, and taking its title from a line of the Rupert Brooke poem Tiare Tahiti.
The book examines the lives and morality of post-World War I youth. The novel
was an overnight success and shot Fitzgerald to instant stardom as dauphin of
the Jazz Age. Its protagonist, Amory Blaine, is an attractive Princeton
University student who dabbles in literature. The novel explores the theme of
love warped by greed and status-seeking. Most of the characters are drawn
directly from Fitzgerald's own life. This edition is based on Fitzgerald's
original manuscript.
Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (1896 – 1940) was an American author of novels
