关于此电子书

The very wealthy are different from the rest of us, and so is Anson. From a young age, he learned to speak in an almost British way; his words and sentences are crisp and clear. The first time he learned that his life was superior was when he realised that the parents of his friends were vaguely excited about their children playing with Anson and his siblings. Despite being born with a proverbial silver spoon in his mouth, Anson grew up to be an egoistic and lonely man.

Problems arise in Anson's life when he falls in love with Paula, a woman who is as rich as himself.

‘The Rich Boy’ is a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald in Paris while waiting for ‘The Great Gatsby’ to be published. Many of the themes that would be read in 'Gatsby' are found in this short story.

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940) is one of the greatest American novelists of the 20th century and author of the classics ‘Tender is the Night’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’. His writing helped illustrate the 1920s Jazz Age that he and wife Zelda Fitzgerald were in the centre of.
