jazz age

Welcome to the roaring 1920's! The Jazz Age. A period within time which the passive behaviors, beliefs, and purity of the past generations, were tossed aside to create room for the changes America was about to experience! The birth of independent voting rights for women, lavishing parties, and where excitement was to be found in every corner. This was the era in which the people were considered the "Lost Generation," and from this environment emerged …

…Zelda's schizophrenia, lack of inspiration, efforts in remaining a good father for his daughter Scottie, and financial difficulties. "...Ability to perceive the reality behind the glittering carnival, the face behind the mask." This was the work of Fitzgerald in which our society and numerous prominent American writers respect today. Without Fitzgerald's writings a piece of our heritage and culture in the 20's may have been lost. The unmatched voice of the Jazz Age. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
