A short summary of the book The Beautiful and The Damned:
Drinking until disinheritance.
My favorite F. Scott Fitzgerald quote from the book:
"Intelligence is a mere instrument of circumstances."
Questions I pondered while reading The Beautiful and the Damned:
The Fitzgerald question - What does one do with oneself when one has nothing to do?
Does self-absorption cause laziness or vice-versa?
My review of The Beautiful and The Damned:
The fun of rich people's problems.
Miss Gloria is a girl after my own heart. I want to lay around, read, and dream and think while an imaginary servant brings me lemonades and tomato sandwiches.
I just want my own money too.
