The book presents an intimate and discerning view of a lively period of arts and letters. Included are essays on F. Scott Fitzgerald, T.S. Eliot, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Christian Gauss, Sherwood Anderson, and Gertrude Stein as well as personal impressions, sketches of life in the twenties, letters, and pieces on the classics.
