Sirva la presente selección de relatos como puerta de entrada en el asombroso universo de Francis Scott Fitzgerald (St. Paul, Minnesota, 1896 - Hollywood, California, 1940), que publicó a lo largo de su vida una vasta obra de cuentos que fueron notablemente populares. Sus narraciones breves constituyen un testimonio de excepción de la euforia de los prósperos años veinte y de la posterior Depresión. Asimismo, a Fitzgerald le debemos una de las novelas más celebradas que ha dado la literatura norteamericana, El gran Gatsby (1925). Este autor deslumbra por su talento a la hora de capturar los sueños y aspiraciones generacionales, y su narrativa fue decisiva para configurar la imagen que tenemos de la era del jazz.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was an American writer of novels and short stories, whose works have been seen as evocative of the Jazz Age, a term he himself allegedly coined. He is regarded as one of the greatest twentieth century writers. Fitzgerald was of the self-styled "Lost Generation," Americans born in the 1890s who came of age during World War I. He finished four novels, left a fifth unfinished, and wrote dozens of short stories that treat themes of youth, despair, and age. He was married to Zelda Fitzgerald.
