Scott Fitzgerald's best-loved and most beguiling stories, together in a single volume\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In 1928, while struggling with his novel \u003ci\u003eTender Is the Night,\u003c\/i\u003e Fitzgerald began writing a series of stories about Basil Duke Lee, a fictionalized version of his younger self. Drawing on his childhood and adolescent experiences, Fitzgerald wrote nine tales that were published in the \u003ci\u003eSaturday Evening Post\u003c\/i\u003e about his life from the time he was an eleven-year-old boy living in Buffalo, New York, until he entered Princeton University in 1913. Then from 1930 to 1931, with \u003ci\u003eTender Is the Night\u003c\/i\u003e still unfinished, Fitzgerald wrote five more stories (also published in the \u003ci\u003ePost)\u003c\/i\u003e that centered around Josephine Perry, Basil's female counterpart. Although Fitzgerald intended to combine the fourteen Basil Lee and Josephine Perry stories into a single work, he never succeeded in doing so in his lifetime. Here, \u003ci\u003eThe Basil and Josephine Stories\u003c\/i\u003e brings together in one volume the complete set, resulting in one of Fitzgerald's most charming and evocative works.","brand":"Scribner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42687569494271,"sku":"9780684826189","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_3294dd0e-8442-4013-9cbb-679975545427.jpg?v=1764014608","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780684826189","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
