Francis Scott Fitzgerald

    24 septembre 1896 – 21 décembre 1940

    Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald fut un écrivain américain dont les œuvres sont souvent associées à "l'Âge du Jazz", une époque qu'il aurait lui-même nommée. Il est considéré comme l'un des plus grands écrivains du XXe siècle, ses créations explorant les thèmes de la jeunesse, du désespoir et de la vieillesse. La prose de Fitzgerald capture l'ambiance de la "Génération Perdue", ces Américains qui atteignirent la majorité pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. Son style distinctif évoque l'esprit de son époque, examinant les complexités des désirs et des désillusions humaines.

    • Ameryka, początek dwudziestego stulecia. Tytułowi „piękni i przeklęci”, Anthony i Gloria, to beztroscy, młodzi kochankowie z wyższych sfer, których wspólne życie utkane jest naprzemiennie z dni zabaw oraz dni melancholii. Ten niezmienny rytm wyznaczają także ich dwie obsesje: pieniądze i alkohol, które z czasem przemienią ich życie w koszmar miłości oraz nienawiści, nałogu i choroby umysłowej. W głównych postaciach odbijają się niczym w lustrze osoby Francisa i Zeldy Fitzgeraldów; powieść, przesycona wątkami autobiograficznymi, stała się zapowiedzią ich późniejszych dramatycznych losów. „Piękni i przeklęci” to klasyka literatury amerykańskiej, jedno z największych osiągnięć literackich Fitzgeralda.

      F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940) verstand sich selbst als Produkt und Prototyp seiner Zeit. Das machte ihn zum peniblen Notierer alles Erlebten, Gehörten, Gelesenen, zugleich wurden sein Leben und sein Werk zum Inbegriff des Jazz Age der Goldenen Zwanziger Jahre und der traumatischen wirtschaftlichen Krisenzeit der Dreißiger. Seit seinen College-Jahren sah Fitzgerald im Schreiben von Notebooks ein notwendiges Handwerkszeug, um ein großer Autor zu werden. Sie dienten als Werkstatt und Chronik, als literarische Vorratskammer von Einfällen, Aufgeschnapptem, guten Sätzen, atmosphärischen Beschreibungen. Anfang der 1930er Jahre begann er damit, ausgewählte Aufzeichnungen unter einem Alphabet von Überschriften wie »Bright Clippings«, »Conversations and things overheard«, »Descriptions of things and atmospheres« anzuordnen und auf der Schreibmaschine abtippen zu lassen. Edmund Wilson, von Fitzgerald als sein »intellektuelles Gewissen« geschätzt, hat das Typoskript der Notebooks aus dem Nachlass des Autors in gekürzter Version herausgegeben und 1945 publiziert. Sie werden hier erstmals in deutscher Sprache veröffentlicht und bieten einen unvergleichlichen Einblick in die Werkstatt, in der Romane wie ›Der große Gatsby‹ oder ›Der letzte Tycoon‹ entstanden sind.

    • Lata dwudzieste XX wieku to jeden z najbarwniejszych okresów StanówZjednoczonych Ameryki. Jazz, rozluźnienie moralnych więzów, prohibicja, blichtr życia socjety… W tym świecie żyje też Gatsby, elegancki, intrygujący i bogatymężczyzna. Powoli odkrywamy jego tajemniczą przeszłość i obserwujemy pierwsze - od pięciu lat - spotkanie z Daisy, dawną ukochaną. Francis Scott Fitzgerald mistrzowsko przedstawia realia swojej epoki i odpowiada na pytania nie tylko o trwałość uczucia, ale także o możliwość awansu społecznego. Kolejne ekranizacje dowodzą, że świat śmietanki towarzyskiej tamtych lat, niezmiennie nęci. Samemu Fitzgeraldowi również nieobce były związki, wokół których stale narastały kontrowersje. Jeden z nich tworzył z żoną Zeldą, której zadedykował „Wielkiego Gatsby’ego”. Ostatnie zdanie powieści wygrawerowane zostało na jej nagrobku.
