The Beautiful and Damned, first published by Scribner's in 1922, is F. Scott Fitzgerald's second novel.It tells the story of Anthony Patch (a 1920s socialite and presumptive heir to a tycoon's fortune), his relationship with his wife Gloria, his service in the army, and alcoholism. The novel provides an excellent portrait of the Eastern elite as the Jazz Age begins its ascent, engulfing all classes into what would soon be known as Café Society. As with all of his other novels, it is a brilliant character study and is also an early account of the complexities of marriage and intimacy that were further explored in Tender Is the Night. The book is believed to be largely based on Fitzgerald's relationship and marriage with Zelda Fitzgerald.Toward the end of the novel, Fitzgerald references himself via a character who is a novelist: "You know these new novels make me tired. My God! Everywhere I go some silly girl asks me if I've read 'This Side of Paradise.' Are our girls really like that? If it's true to life, which I don't believe, the next generation is going to the dogs. I'm sick of all this shoddy realism."A 1922 film adaptation, directed by William A. Seiter, starred Kenneth Harlan as Anthony Patch and Marie Prevost as Gloria. In 2004, the book lent its title to a musical based on the Fitzgeralds' marriage. A modern adaptation of the novel has been made recently by Australian filmmaker Richard Wolstencroft starring Ross Ditcham and Kristen Condon. It is due for release in Australia in 2010 after playing at the F.Scott Fitzgerald conference in Baltimore, October 2009. (wikipedia.org)

Raconté par un voisin devenu son ami, le roman tourne autour du personnage de Gatsby, jeune millionnaire charmant au passé trouble qui vit luxueusement dans une villa toujours pleine d'invités. Par certains aspects, le livre peut paraître une critique complexe de la bourgeoisie, de son opulence et de sa superficialité, où chaque personnage est prêt à tout pour parvenir à ses fins.Nick Carraway, un jeune homme américain du Middle West atteignant la trentaine, se rend à New York pour travailler dans la finance comme agent de change. Par hasard, il trouve à louer une petite bicoque à Long Island, zone résidentielle très huppée et snob de la banlieue new-yorkaise. Sa demeure, presque invisible, est située dans West Egg entre deux énormes et luxueuses villas. De là, la vue est imprenable sur East Egg, l'endroit le plus cossu et sélect de toute la zone. C'est là qu'habitent Daisy, sa cousine germaine et Tom Buchanan, son mari, issu de la même promotion que Nick à l'université Yale.Nick se rend un soir chez les Buchanan, qu'il connaît à peine, sur invitation de Daisy. Tom, beau et riche colosse, mais quelque peu bourru paraît végéter auprès de Daisy, laquelle semble tout autant s'ennuyer ferme avec son mari. Elle passe le plus clair de son temps avec son amie Jordan Baker, joueuse de golf professionnelle.Tom, peu de temps après, demande à Nick de l'accompagner pour lui présenter sa maîtresse, Myrtle Wilson, la femme d'un garagiste sur la route qui relie New York à Long Island. Nick, témoin de l'inconstance de Tom, de l'enlisement du couple qu'il forme avec Daisy, n'aurait guère d'intérêt à fréquenter les Buchanan s'il n'y avait le rapprochement de plus en plus sensible avec la belle Jordan. Celle-ci s'étonne qu'il ne connaisse pas Gatsby puisqu'il habite West Egg, comme lui, et qu'on ne parle que de cet homme à la richesse fabuleuse.Gatsby, justement, c'est son voisin. C'est lui qui possède l'immense maison très animée qui occulte celle misérable de Nick. Gatsby donne fréquemment des réceptions somptueuses qui accueillent des centaines de convives. Mais qui est Jay Gatsby? D'où vient-il? Que fait-il? Les rumeurs les plus folles circulent sur son passé et sa fortune, même au sein de sa propre maison. C'est ce que Nick brûle de découvrir lorsqu'un jour il reçoit une invitation pour passer la soirée chez Gatsby. Une incroyable histoire va lier Nick, Tom, Gatsby, Jordan, Myrtle et Daisy pendant cet été 1922...
