A Distant Drummer

Foreign Perspectives on F. Scott Fitzgerald

152 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A Distant Drummer attends more to F. Scott Fitzgerald’s aesthetic merits, ideas, style, techniques, context of his works and less to biographical details which, critics believe, are intricately interwoven within his works. In striving to respond to Fitzgerald’s artistry away from the impulse of the author’s personal experience, it is – in a very strange paradox – more attuned and, in consequence, closer to Fitzgerald, who wanted his fiction to be objectively judged and free of the stigma which besmirches his reputation.
