DESCRIERE
This Side of Paradise tells the story of Amory Blaine, the only child of wealthy parents, whose journey from adolescence to adulthood follows him from prep school through to Princeton University, where his literary talents flourish, in contrast to his academic failure. A sequence of love affairs with beautiful young women are fatally damaged by the collapse of his family's fortune, and the novel ends with him poised to face the challenge of making his own way in the world. Composed in an unconventional narrative mode, the novel is a rich fusion of satiric and romance idioms, and found a captivated audience on its publication in 1920.
Cealalta fata a paradisului este povestea lui Amory Blaine, unicul copil al unor partinti bogati, pe care il urmarim din adolescenta pana la maturitate la Universitatea Princeton, unde talentul sau literar creste invers proportional cu rezultatele sale scolare.
Cei frumosi si blestemati este versiunea intunecata a puterii corozive a bogatiei si a privilegiilor sale. Anthony Patch este mostenitorul unei averi imense insa casatoria sa cu frumoasa si indolenta Gloria este umbrita de decaderea sa in alcoolism.
