Synopsis "The Rich Boy"

"Let me tell you about the very rich. They are different from you and me. They possess and enjoy early, and it does something to them, makes them soft where we are hard, and cynical where we are trustful..."-F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Rich Boy (1926)The Rich Boy (1926) by F. Scott Fitzgerald was originally published in The Redbook Magazine and later in a collection of Fitzgerald's short stories, All the Sad Young Men (1926). The story, thought to be an extension of The Great Gatsby, further explores the impact of wealth on a person's character. Anson Hunter, the title rich boy, embodies all the traits of the rich that are so different from the middle class and is modeled after Fitzgerald's Princeton classmate and best man. Considered to be one of Fitzgerald's most important stories, this is a must-read for all who love Gatsby and The Jazz Age.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (Saint Paul, Minnesota, September 24, 1896-Hollywood, California, December 21, 1940) was a military officer, host, novelist, and American writer, widely known as one of the finest authors of the 20th century, whose works are paradigmatic of the Jazz Age. Fitzgerald is considered a member of the Lost Generation of the twenties.

He wrote five novels: The Great Gatsby, Tender Is the Night, This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, and The Last Tycoon, which, although unfinished, was published after his death. He also wrote numerous short stories, many of which deal with youth and promise, age and despair.
