Scott Fitzgerald's short stories highlights the skilled versatility of the great American writer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe tales featured in this short story collection were first published between 1909 and 1926, and include a seminal piece written by F. Scott Fitzgerald when he was just 13. 'The Mystery of Raymond Mortgage' (1909) was lost for 50 years and the early murder mystery demonstrates the influence popular writers of the time, such as Edgar Allan Poe, had on young Fitzgerald. Also featured in this collection of fantasy and horror tales are some of Fitzgerald's most popular short stories, including 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' (1922). The haunting piece follows the protagonist from birth until death, but one thing makes Benjamin different: he's ageing backwards. A biting social commentary, the famous story highlights Fitzgerald's masterful writing ability.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis volume features the following short stories:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'The Mystery of Raymond Mortage' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'The Ordeal' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'Tarquin of Cheapside' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'The Offshore Pirate' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- '\"O Russet Witch!\"' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'The Adjuster' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'Rags Martin-Jones and the Pr-nce of W-les' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-ordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- 'The Dance' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRead \u0026amp; Co.'s Fantasy \u0026amp; Horror Classics imprint has republished these short stories in a brand new collection, featuring a specially-commissioned biography of F.
