Main currents in American thought

F. Scott Fitzgerald

Project Gutenberg EPUB3 edition Parrington, Vernon Louis
Open passage
This Side of Paradise (1921); The Beautiful and the Damned (1922). A bad boy who loves to smash things to show how naughty he is; a bright boy who loves to say smart things to show how clever he is. Precocious, ignorant—a short candle already burnt out.
