F. Scott Fitzgerald

Fitzgerald named an age- the Jazz Age, which he defined as ’a generation grown up to find all Gods dead, all wars fought, all faiths in man shaken.’

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born in 1896 in St Paul, Minnesota, and studied at Princeton which he left in his senior year (1917) to join the army. At one of his army postings near Montgomery, Massachusetts he met Zelda Sayre. His first novel was ‘This Side of Paradise.’ published in 1920, which made the twenty-four-year-old Fitzgerald famous almost overnight, and a week later he married Zelda in New York. Their tumultuous marriage became an inspiration for much of his work. They were young celebrities of the roaring 20s but Fitzgerald wanted to be a great writer though his reputation as a playboy meant some people didn’t take him seriously

The Fitzgeralds went to France in the spring of 1924 to get away from all the hubbub, and he wrote ‘The Great Gatsby’ during the summer and autumn in Valescure near St. Raphael, France
.
‘Tender is the Night’ received a poor critical reaction when it was published in 1934. Fitzgerald was eventually forced to try to earn a living as a screenwriter.
He died in December 1940 in Hollywood while working on ‘The Last Tycoon.’ Since then he has been granted his wish to be considered one of the leading writers of the twentieth century.

His novels in chronological order are: ‘This Side of Paradise’, ‘The Beautiful and Damned’, ‘The Great Gatsby’, ‘Tender is the Night’, ‘The Last Tycoon’.

What we are doing

About Not So Noble Books

http://www.radicaleyes.it/notsonoblebooks/

We are an independent publisher of ebooks. We are proud and excited to be part of the new wave of publishing which is transforming how books are sold and what they are.

Erik Empson and Jasper Joffe started Not So Noble Books because they saw an opportunity to use their skills and knowledge to produce books which they were passionate about and which might otherwise be homeless in the slums created by mainstream commercial publishing. Books that range from genre fiction to academic texts, books which don’t conform… even to each other. Because who cares about brand identity when every book can be chosen on its merits rather than because it has a big publishing house behind it?

They have both achieved success in their fields. Erik is an academic and teaches part-time at The University of London, he is also a book and magazine editor with over ten years’ experience. Jasper is a well-known contemporary artist with a track record of provocative and inspiring projects such as The Free Art Fair. You can read more about his art and listen to him blather on at www.jasperjoffe.com.

They are artisan publishers in the spirit of William Morris, The Hogarth Press, Wu Ming, Guy Debord and the Famous Five.

From cover to blurb, from viral marketing to editing, they lavish their passion and intellects on producing and selling books. What they love most is the moment when the book is out there, being downloaded and read by you the reader. With epublishing the book has changed from a stable, moribund object to a constantly updateable improvable site of experimentation.

A typical book might involve Jasper thinking of a text and an angle, Erik doing an edit and writing an introduction, the blurb a mere wine cork away, a hitchhiking hipster designing the cover, and their intern tweeting and facebooking about it, while busy buying regular cadeaux of piccoli pensieri to keep our favourite, esteemed author, the tempestuous Ann Abrams at bay. Or any combination of the above.

If the book isn’t being read, or they get reader feedback then they act quickly to adapt and improve the title. They take satisfaction from being involved in every aspect of the process, no longer alienated from their labour, selling the products of their toil very directly to you the esteemed reader.
