Description:
When F. Scott Fitzgerald was fourteen and living in St. Paul, he began keeping a short diary of his exploits among his friends, friendly rivals, and crushes. The Thoughtbook includes a new introduction by Dave Page that covers the history and provenance of the diary, its meaning in Fitzgerald's literary development, and what it says about Fitzgerald's life and writing process.
Review Quotes:
The Thoughtbook is a fascinating document. You can see the social analyst, the novelist of manners, just beginning to develop.--James L. W. West III, General Editor, Cambridge Fitzgerald Edition
