The Last Tycoon (r-p)

The Last Tycoon by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Publisher: BBC Audiobooks 2009 | ISBN: 0141185637 | Language English | Audio CD in MP3/128 kbps | 271 MB

The novel's tragic tycoon hero is Stahr and, caught in the crossfire of his own effortless cynicism and his silent, secret vulnerability, he inhabits a world dominated by business, alcohol and promiscuity. If there is a moral or social necessity to film-making in this West Coast never-never land, Stahr does not always believe in it. And if there is love, he does not always see it.

F. Scott Fitzgerald was one of the major American writers of the twentieth century – a figure whose life and works embodied powerful myths about our national dreams and aspirations. Fitzgerald was talented and perceptive, gifted with a lyrical style and a pitch-perfect ear for language. He lived his life as a romantic, equally capable of great dedication to his craft and reckless squandering of his artistic capital. He left us one sure masterpiece, The Great Gatsby; a near-masterpiece, Tender Is the Night; and a gathering of stories and essays that together capture the essence of the American experience. His writings are insightful and stylistically brilliant; today he is admired both as a social chronicler and a remarkably gifted artist.
