Сборникът съдържа осемнайсет неиздавани, непознати или смятани за безвъзвратно изгубени разказа на легендарния писател. Писани в края на 30-те години на миналия век, те са били отхвърлени от редакторите заради провокативната си тема и стил или са потънали във водовъртежа на последните години от живота на Фицджералд. Дори когато се е нуждаел от пари и вниманието на критиците, писателят е предпочел да ги остави непубликувани, вместо да допусне редакторска намеса. Разказите показват Ф. Скот Фицджералд в различна светлина и затвърждават позицията му на една от знаковите фигури в историята на американската литература. В ... |
