The Great Gatsby: Illustrated by Ludovic Salle

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) was a novelist and short story writer, celebrated worldwide for his touching and tragic portrayals of the American Jazz Age. His fiction drew heavily on his own life, particularly on his passionate but turbulent marriage to beautiful Zelda Saure, dubbed 'the first American Flapper'. After receiving only moderate critical success in his lifetime, Fitzgerald is now heralded as one of the greatest writers in American history. Ludovic Salle is a freelance artist and illustrator with a degree in visual communication. He likes to make his illustrations travel in time with colorful and attractive pictures, installing them in scenes that include aesthetic, funny or offbeat characters.
