Did not finish book.
I’ve always struggled with Fitzgerald- I think I’m
Just going to give up on him altogether. The thing that is interesting about Fitzgerald is the era in which he lives-Which was inherently interesting but not Fitzgerald himself. So far a teenager has fallen in love with an older man who just yells at his wife to shut up. Now he has asked this teenager who has already said “I loved you from the first moment I saw you” to travel With him and his wife. 

Refering to women as “there difference from so many American women lay in the fact that they where all happy to exist in a man’s world.they preserved there individuality through men and not by opposition to them. They all three would Have made good courtesan’s or house wives.”
