What is The Cambridge edition of the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Trimalchio : an early version of "The great Gatsby" about?

Reading F. Scott Fitzgerald's Trimalchio, An Early And Complete Version Of The Great Gatsby, Is Like Listening To A Familiar Musical Composition - But Played In A Different Key And With An Alternate Bridge Passage. It Is The Same Work And Yet A Different Work. Trimalchio, However, Is Also A Remarkable Achievement. It Differs Considerably From The Great Gatsby: Its Plot And Structure Are Not The Same; Chapters Vi And Vii Of Trimalchio Are Entirely Different; Elsewhere In The Narrative One Finds Passages And Sequences Missing From Gatsby. Most Importantly, In Trimalchio Jay Gatsby's Past Is Revealed In A Wholly Different Fashion. This Ur-novel Is Now Made Available To Readers And Scholars, Not Only For Comparison With The Great Gatsby But For Interpretation And Analysis On Its Own.--jacket.
