The girls think I must be an actor, till they find out
No matter how beautiful or brilliant a girl may be, the reputation of not being frequently cut in on makes her position at a dance unfortunate. Perhaps boys prefer her company to that of the butterflies with whom they dance a dozen times an but, youth in this jazz-nourished generation is temperamentally restless, and the idea of fox-trotting more than one full fox trot with the same girl is distasteful, not to say odious. When it comes to several dances and the intermissions between she can be quite sure that a young man, once relieved, will never tread on her wayward toes again.

Love in the Night (+Biography and Bibliography) (6X9po Glossy Cover Finish): The words thrilled Val. They had come into his mind sometime during the fresh gold April afternoon and he kept repeating them to himself over and over: "Love in the night; love in the night." He tried them in three languages Russian, French and English and decided that they were best in English. In each language they meant a different sort of love and a different sort of night the English night seemed the warmest and softest with a thinnest and most crystalline sprinkling of stars. The English love seemed the most fragile and romantic a white dress and a dim face above it and eyes that were pools of light.And when I add that it was a French night he was thinking about, after all, I see I must go back and begin over. Val was half Russian and half American. His mother was the daughter of that Morris Hasylton who helped finance the Chicago World's Fair in 1892, and his father was see the Almanach de Gotha, issue of 1910 Prince Paul Serge Boris Rostoff, son of Prince Vladimir Rostoff, grandson of a grand duke 'Jimber-jawed Serge' and third-cousin-once-removed to the czar. It was all very impressive, you see, on that side house in St. Petersburg, shooting lodge near Riga, and swollen villa, more like a palace, overlooking the Mediterranean.It was at this villa in Cannes that the Rostoffs passed the winter and it wasn't at all the thing to remind Princess Rostoff that this Riviera villa, from the marble fountain after Bernini to the gold cordial glasses after dinner was paid for with American gold...

The Four Fistsby Francis Scott FitzgeraldFrancis Scott Key Fitzgerald was an American fiction writer, whose works illustrate the Jazz Age. While he achieved popular success, fame, and fortune in his lifetime, he didn't receive much critical acclaim until after his death.
A self-portrait of a great writer 's rise and fall, intensely personal and etched with Fitzgerald's signature blend of romance and realism. The Crack-Up tells the story of Fitzgerald's sudden descent at the age of thirty-nine from glamorous success to empty despair, and his determined recovery. Compiled and edited by Edmund Wilson shortly after F. Scott Fitzgerald's death, this revealing collection of his essays—as well as letters to and from Gertrude Stein, Edith Wharton, T.S. Eliot, John Dos Passos—tells of a man with charm and talent to burn, whose gaiety and genius made him a living symbol of the Jazz Age, and whose recklessness brought him grief and loss. "Fitzgerald's physical and spiritual exhaustion is described brilliantly," noted The New York Review of Books: "the essays are amazing for the candor.
