Review "The Jazz Age chronicler's first great novel."
— The Times

"No one has written more elegiacally about America than F. Scott Fitzgerald... a sense of lost time and the irretrievability of the past gave much of his work -- indeed, his life -- an ineradicable undertone of mourning."
— Guardian

"If Francis Scott Fitzgerald had not existed, it would have been necessary to invent him. Seldom has there been a character who personified, as well as chronicled, an age with such dexterity and verisimilitude."
— Sunday Times --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. The Beautiful and Damned (Penguin Hardback Classics)
