Short Fiction Fitzgerald, F. Scott: An Alcoholic Case. v1. 06 Jan 09

[Dr. Drib]

F. Scott Fitzgerald, and the story "An Alcoholic Case."

Below, one writer uses comparison and contrast with this story and "Two Wrongs," (also available here on MobileRead).

"In his writings, F. Scott Fitzgerald sometimes blends many similar character traits among the main characters. So it goes with 'Two Wrongs,' and 'An Alcoholic Case.' Perhaps it may seem an unlikely choice for a comparison/contrast, however I believe these stories are very much correlated. From the way that Fitzgerald typecasts, 'alcoholic artists' as the main characters, to the similarities in the reactions and emotions of the supporting characters, both of which are females. With this also are the cases of the men having changes of hearts and trying to achieve a sense of nobility and character. These are just some of the similarities in Fitzgerald's stories."

Like all the books I assemble on MobileRead, this too was assembled to reflect human intervention and artistic judgment.

I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you for the nice words.

Yes, he was very prolific, and there's quite a lot more Fitzgerald that I'll try to assemble.
