Book Synopsis

Fitzgerald's experiences as a screen writer in Hollywood provided the fodder for this unfinished novel (Fitzgerald died of a heart attack in December 1940 after having partially completed Chapter 6 of The Last Tycoon). The author's notes concerning the balance of the novel were collected and edited by literary critic Edmund Wilson, a close friend to Fitzgerald, and the book was published posthumously in 1941. The story concerns the rise to power of Hollwood producer Monroe Stahr, a character allegedly based on Irving Thalberg, whose talent, ambition and raw magnetism were traits Fitzgerald admired.
