About this ebook

Sally Carrol is looking for a bigger life than the one she leads in her small-town home of Tarleton, Georgia. When she tells her friends about her engagement to a man from a Northern town, they are concerned that she is making a rash decision. But Sally claims to know what is best for her, and is intent on finding the quickest route to a more exciting life.

Fitzgerald’s later story, “The Jelly-Bean,” was intended as a loose follow up to “The Ice Palace,” and was set in the same fictional town and referenced some of the characters introduced in “The Ice Palace.”

About the author

F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in 1896, attended Princeton University in 1913, and published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920. That same year he married Zelda Sayre, and he quickly became a central figure in the American expatriate circle in Paris that included Gertrude Stein and Ernest Hemingway. He died of a heart attack in 1940 at the age of forty-four.
