A collection of stories about unscrupulous film writer Pat Hobby, a relic from the early days of Hollywood, looking for success in the changing world of the movies. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s collection paints a comic portrait of a man unwilling to accept his fate as a thing of the past. Entertainingly artless and insensitive; by turns lazy and scheming, Hobby keeps his head just above water as the decades leave silent film behind.

Sally will die in Europe this summer. George Orr dreamed that his girlfriend, Sally Wodehouse, would die on the trip she wanted to take, and he begged her not to go. But Sally did not take him seriously - how could she? She left for Europe in July 1968 with 25 other private-school kids, on "The Odyssey", a 60s version of the Grand Tour. In August 1968, only hours after becoming engaged to George via telegram, she died as he had dreamed she would, in a freak accident. Sally was George's first love, but she was also James FitzGerald's. He was drawn to her energy and warmth, a stunning contrast to the chilly emotional life of his own family.

She returns to her hometown to nurse her dying father, her distant teenage daughter in tow for the weekends. There, in the sleepy town of Ash Mountain, childhood memories prick at her fragile self-esteem, she falls in love for the first time and her demanding dad tests her patience, all in the unbearable heat of an Australian summer.

From the singular voices behind Tom and Lorenzo comes the ultimate guide to all-things RuPaul's Drag Race and its influence on modern LGBTQ culture. Legendary Children centers itself around the idea that not only is RuPaul's Drag Race the queerest show in the history of television, but that RuPaul and company devised a show that serves as an actual museum of queer cultural and social history, drawing on queer traditions and the work of legendary figures going back nearly a century.

It's 1929, and 12-year-old Martha has no choice but to work as a maid in the New York City mansion of the wealthy Sewell family. But, despite the Gatsby-like parties and trimmings of success, she suspects something might be deeply wrong in the household - specifically with Rose Sewell, the formerly vivacious lady of the house who now refuses to leave her room. The other servants say Rose is crazy, but scrappy, strong-willed Martha thinks there's more to the story - and that the paintings in the Sewells' gallery contain a hidden message detailing the truth.

Scott Fitzgerald schrieb diese Kurzgeschichten in den letzten Monaten vor seinem Tod. Sie sind eine faszinierende Selbstsatire, die seine Hollywood-Jahre zum Leben erwecken. Der Schauplatz: Ein großes Filmstudio; die Figur: Pat Hobby, ein abgehalfterter Drehbuchautor, der ständig versucht, wieder ins Showgeschäft einzusteigen, aber mehr Glück empfindet, wenn er in den einschlägigen Bars in der näheren Umgebung herumhängen kann. Die siebzehn Pat-Hobby-Geschichten wurden zwischen 1940 und 1941 veröffentlicht, als F. Scott Fitzgerald für die Universal Studios arbeitete.
