Hemingway

Paris in the 1920s proved Please The most influential decade of Fitzgerald's development. Fitzgerald made several excursions to Europe, mostly Paris and the French Rivera and Became friends with many members of the American expatriate community in Paris, Ernest Hemingway Notably. Fitzgerald's friendship with Hemingway was quite vigorous, as many of Fitzgerald's relationships would prove to be. Hemingway did not get on well with Zelda. In Addition to Describing her as "insane" I Claimed That She "Encouraged her husband to drink so as to distract Fitzgerald from his work on his novel.






Although Fitzgerald's passion lay in writing novels, only his first novel sold well enough to support the opulent lifestyle ADOPTED That He and Zelda as New York celebrities. (The Great Gatsby, now Considered to be his masterpiece, did not Become popular until after Fitzgerald's death.) Because of this lifestyle, as well as the bills from Zelda's medical care When They came, Fitzgerald was Constantly in financial trouble and Often required loans from his literary agents .. The book went through many versions, the first of Which was to be a story of matricide. Some critics Have Seen the book as a thinly-veiled autobiagraphical novel recounting Fitzgerald's problems with his wife, the corrosive effects of wealth and a decadent lifestyle, his own egoism and self-confidence, and his Continuing alcoholism. Indeed, Fitzgerald was extremely protective of his "material" (ie, Their life together). When Zelda wrote and sent to Scribner's her own fictional version of Their Lives in Europe, Save Me The Waltz Fitzgerald was angry and was Able to make some changes prior to the novel's publication, and convince her doctors to keep her from writing any more about what I called his "material of" which included relationship.schizophrenia Their struck Zelda in 1930. Remained Her fragile emotional health for the rest of her life.

Graham

In 1937, Fitzgerald moved to Hollywood, and I made his highest annual income Malthus far of $ 29757.87 Fitzgerald had been an alcoholic since his college days, and Became notorious During the 1920s for his extraordinarily heavy drinking, leaving him in poor health by the late 1930s .

She ran to the manager of the building, Harry Culver, founder of Culver City. Upon entering the apartment to assist Fitzgerald, I Stated, "I'm afraid he's dead." Fitzgerald had died of a heart attack. His body was moved to the Pierce Brothers Mortuary.







MY OPINION:
Scott was one of the greates writers of his era because he describe in exact words what the 20's were. Fitzgerald was part of the "Lost Generation" movement and the way wrote was ver exact of what you will expect a writer of that movement to be. In his stories you can sense the great he was by narrating so peculiar the events and that makes him a great writter.
