Head and Shoulders
Do opposites actually attract?
'Head and Shoulders' features the intellectual Horace, who is totally absorbed in his studies at Princeton, but falls for a spirited dancer despite trying to remain focused.
As Horace tries to be more like his new love interest and she tries to adapt her personality to better fit him, they slowly find themselves living the other's life - for better or for worse, who knows.
This short story was adapted into a silent film, 'The Chorus Girl's Romance'.
Perfect for fans of ´The Great Gatsby´.
F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) is one of the greatest American novelists of the 20th century and the author of the classics `Tender is the Night' and `The Great Gatsby', with the latter having been made into a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan.
Skillfully capturing the prosperity of post-World War One America, his writing helped illustrate the 1920s Jazz Age that he and his wife Zelda Fitzgerald were at the centre of.

F. Scott Fitzgerald
**F. Scott Fitzgerald** (1896–1940) est l’un des plus grands écrivains américains du XXe siècle, figure emblématique de la **Lost Generation** et chroniqueur inégalé de l’Âge du Jazz. Né dans le Minnesota, il étudie à Princeton avant de s’installer à New York, où il rencontre Zelda Sayre, qui deviendra sa muse et son épouse. Leur vie tumultueuse, marquée par l’excès, l’alcool et les dettes, inspire une grande partie de son œuvre. Fitzgerald publie *The Beautiful and Damned* en 1922, roman semi-autobiographique qui explore la décadence de la jeunesse riche et désœuvrée. Il est aussi l’auteur de chefs-d’œuvre comme *Gatsby le Magnifique* (1925) et *Tendre est la nuit* (1934), où il mêle lyrisme et mélancolie pour peindre une Amérique en quête de sens.
