Scott Fitzgerald: From Paradise to Party Lights

225 Madison Ave. at 36th St., New York City



Charles Scribner III will offer a personal perspective on F. Scott Fitzgerald and his iconic novel, THE GREAT GATSBY, published in 1925 by Charles Scribner's sons. As a Sophmore at Princeton, this Scribner--fifth generation of publishers--settled down for an evening train ride with a silver flask and a copy of The Diamond as Big as The Ritz. Four decades later, he offers--sans flask--an evening reflection on his long atachment to the last of the romantic novelists.
