Scott Fitzgerald's The Last Tycoon is a story of doomed love set against the extravagance of America's booming film industry. The studio lot looks like 'thirty acres of fairyland' the night that a mysterious woman stands and smiles at Monroe Stahr, the last of the great Hollywood princes. Enchanted by one another, they begin a passionate but hopeless love affair, starting with a fast-moving seduction as slick as a scene from one of Stahr's pictures.

This volume contains the last literary project Fitzgerald worked on before his death from alcoholism. It was one of the publications that served to reinvigorate Fitzgerald's reputation, as before this he had not published a book in five years. Shortly after this book's publication, interest in The Great Gatsby skyrocketed, so much so that American GI's were issued copies to take with them to the European front. Fitzgerald's unfinished work explores the tension between art and commerce, based on the true story of two dueling executives at MGM studios. The spine rubbed, gutters browned with age; jacket is price-clipped with a few chips and tears.
