Más información sobre el libro

Set against the backdrop of New York's café society during the Jazz Age, the narrative follows Anthony Patch, a Harvard graduate, and his stunning wife, Gloria, as they navigate a tumultuous marriage fueled by alcohol and greed while anticipating an inheritance. The novel delves into themes of ambition, disillusionment, and the moral decay of the American elite in the wake of World War I, all beautifully rendered through Fitzgerald's lyrical prose.
