F. Scott Fitzgerald is one of the artistic authors in American literature who has always inspired young generations ever since he was first published. The very first reason why his masterpieces are so impressive, is his flashing some sections from his real life in his short stories and novels. Furthermore, he is shining at reflecting the characteristics of his period-the glittering Jazz Era, the sophisticated, stylish Roaring Twenties. There are many sections of Fitzgerald’s life, which is very similar to his novel The Great Gatsby. To give some examples, Gatsby falls in love while he is a lieutenant like Fitzgerald and Daisy is keen on a wealthy life, full of luxury just like Zelda who is Fitzgerald’s wife in real life. Nick Carraway has also some similar aspects with Fitzgerald. They both go to Ivy League colleges (Nick goes to Yale and Fitzgerald goes to Princeton.).
