The Unspeakable Egg
Fitzgerald, F. Scott
Synopsis "The Unspeakable Egg"
"...the public was pleased to know that they were ugly monsters for all their money, and everyone was satisfied all around."-F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Unspeakable Egg (1924)The Unspeakable Egg (1924) is a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald that features ultra-rich main character Fifi, engaged to be married to a man who in her estimation is too perfect. The day before the wedding she escapes to the home of her old maid aunts, Cal and Josephine. In an attempt to sort out life, Fifi takes long daily seaside walks over the next few weeks and one day happens upon a scruffy, derelict of a man, an unspeakable egg. Fitzgerald's witty jab at high society ensues, and readers are taken on a comedic ride. Fans of humor and Fitzgerald will enjoy this light-hearted tale.
Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (Saint Paul, Minnesota, 24 de septiembre de 1896-Hollywood, California, 21 de diciembre de 1940) fue un militar, anfitrión, novelista y escritor estadounidense, ampliamente conocido como uno de los mejores autores del siglo xx, cuyos trabajos son paradigmáticos de la era del jazz. Fitzgerald es considerado miembro de la Generación Perdida de los años veinte.
Escribió cinco novelas: El gran Gatsby, Suave es la noche, A este lado del paraíso, Hermosos y malditos y El último magnate, que, aunque sin terminar, fue publicada tras su muerte. Escribió también múltiples historias cortas, muchas de las cuales tratan sobre la juventud y las promesas, la edad y la desesperación.
