5: The Romantic Novel: Scott Fitzgerald
Scott Fitzgerald , who wrote about the glamorous rich of America in the 1920s, has been called the Laureate of the Jazz Age. Yet out of the material of such lives he made two great novels; one of these is his last and most moving book. Tender is the Night, written in the 1930s when his wife went incurably insane.
