The Great Gatsby
Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald
ISBN: 9780141389936
Gatsby’s mansion on Long Island blazes with light, and the beautiful, the wealthy, and the famous drive out from New York to drink Gatsby’s champagne and to party all night long. But Jay Gatsby, the owner of all this wealth, wants only one thing – to find again the woman of his dreams, the woman he has held in his heart and his memory for five long years.
The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s masterpiece, is one of the great American novels of the twentieth century. It captures perfectly the Jazz Age of the 1920s, and goes deep into the hollow heart of the American Dream.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Six Other Stories
Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald
ISBN: 9780141190198
Full grown with a long, smoke-colored beard, requiring the services of a cane and fonder of cigars than warm milk, Benjamin Button is a very curious baby indeed. And, as Benjamin becomes increasingly youthful with the passing years, his family wonders why he persists in the embarrassing folly of living in reverse. In this imaginative fable of ageing and the other stories collected here – including The Cut-Glass Bowl in which an ill-meant gift haunts a family’s misfortunes, The Four Fists where a man’s life is shaped by a series of punches to his face, and the revelry, mobs and anguish of May Day – F. Scott Fitzgerald displays his unmatched gift as a writer of short stories.
