On Booze

by F. Scott Fitzgerald
On Booze - Thryft
On Booze - Thryft

Fitzgerald's reflections on Jazz Age excesses.

If you're intrigued by the roaring twenties and the underbelly of prohibition-era revelry, F. Scott Fitzgerald's "On Booze" offers an authentic glimpse into that world. Dive into the psyche of the 'Lost Generation' through the candid and unapologetic lens of one of its most eloquent voices, uncovering the allure and pitfalls of that intoxicating time.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

"First you take a drink," F. Scott Fitzgerald once noted, "then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you." Fitzgerald wrote alcohol into almost every one of his stories. On Booze gathers debutantes and dandies, rowdy jazz musicians, lost children and ragtime riff-raff into a newly compiled collectin taken from The Crack-Up, and other works.On Booze portrays "The Jazz Age" as Fitzgerald experienced it: roaring, rambunctious, and lush - with quite a hangover.
