"My favourite F Scott Fitzgerald work is the relatively lightweight but enormously enjoyable The Pat Hobby Stories . . . Pat Hobby is a hack screenwriter, in the twilight of an undistinguished career, still trying to scratch out a living in the backwater of a capricious film studio . . . It's the most caustic, funny and well-drawn Hollywood book ever written - the perfect companion to more modern works like The Player and the HBO series Entourage. Pure pleasure." Anthony Bourdain

‘. . . they are the work of a master hand. The prose is lean, swift and deadly accurate.’ The New York Times

‘He certainly could have been a character on "Seinfeld," and would really have come into his own in this era of "The Office," where scenes of public shame have become a vital part of comedic storytelling’ Max Sparber

THE COMPLETE PAT HOBBY STORIES: Follow Pat Hobby, the character Fitzgerald based on his own experiences working as a screenwriter in Hollywood, as he tries to get his career back on track. Both hilarious and heart-breaking this is the original look behind the silver screen glamour of the movies by the author of 'The Great Gatsby'.
