Experience the Roaring Twenties through the mind of one of the twentieth centuryâs greatest American writers with these nine short stories. Included are tales of wealthy eccentrics and unrequited love like âWinter Dreamsâ and âRags Martin-Jones and the Pr-nce of W-les.â A woman who marries for money must handle the consequences when tragedy strikes in âThe Adjuster.â A suburban married couple must deal with the fallout of their toddlerâs violent tantrum in âThe Baby Party.â And a young boy confesses his sins in âAbsolution,â originally written as a prologue to The Great Gatsby, which was published in 1925, one year prior to this collection.
