Synopsis "How to Live on Practically Nothing a Year (in English)"

"When your eyes first fall upon the Mediterranean you know at once why it was here that man first stood erect and stretched out his arms toward the sun. It is a blue sea..." -F. Scott Fitzgerald, How to Live on Practically Nothing a Year (1924) How to Live on Practically Nothing a Year (1924) by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a follow-up essay to How to Live on $36,000 a Year, that chronicles Fitzgerald's attempt to provide wife Zelda with the wealthy lifestyle she loved. After spending the author's salary to the point of debt, the couple is told living abroad is less expensive, so they move to the French Riviera. Despite their desire to live simply, the two are swept up by the social life of expatriates and doomed to further financial ruin. This cleverly crafted insight into the lavishness and excess of the era is a must-read for all who want to know more about the life of Fitzgerald.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (Saint Paul, Minnesota, 24 de septiembre de 1896-Hollywood, California, 21 de diciembre de 1940) fue un militar, anfitrión, novelista y escritor estadounidense, ampliamente conocido como uno de los mejores autores del siglo xx, cuyos trabajos son paradigmáticos de la era del jazz. Fitzgerald es considerado miembro de la Generación Perdida de los años veinte.

Escribió cinco novelas: El gran Gatsby, Suave es la noche, A este lado del paraíso, Hermosos y malditos y El último magnate, que, aunque sin terminar, fue publicada tras su muerte. Escribió también múltiples historias cortas, muchas de las cuales tratan sobre la juventud y las promesas, la edad y la desesperación.
