The Diamond as Big as the Ritz, and Other Stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Fitzgerald's ability to present a theme based on stories that are almost pedestrian constantly amazes me. Each story leaves me to ponder the meaning of the mundane and his ability to moralise, empathise, sympathise and then switch to humour and back again makes me wonder how much was packed into his relatively short life. Certainly makes me a fan of the short story.
