F. Scott Fitzgerald, the messenger of a lost generation, paints a portrait of the era between the two wars in this collection of eleven stories: hedonism that bites, moral decay that intoxicates, and youth that burns like fireworks.
The story is set during the Franco-Prussian War (1870–1871), and begins with the escape of French citizens from Rouen, under Prussian occupation. Among them is Elizabeth Rousset, "Dunda", a girl of easy morals but a kind heart.
