The Jelly-Bean

Jim Powell is a jelly-bean; a lazy, idle man, who is content to drift through life.

However, when his friend, Clark, invites him to a shindig where Nancy Lamar is going to be, there might be an opportunity for him to mend his ways.

Set in the Jazz Age of the Twenties, ‘The Jelly-Bean’ is a fascinating tale that doesn’t spare the details when it comes to issues such as social awkwardness, gambling, and the booze-soaked party scene.

The sting in the tale’s tail is unexpected and haunting.

´The Jelly-Bean´ is a great read for Fitzgerald fans and fans of Mark Twain.

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) is one of the greatest American novelists of the 20th century and the author of the classics ‘Tender is the Night’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’, with the latter having been made into a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan.

Skillfully capturing the prosperity of post-World War One America, his writing helped illustrate the 1920s Jazz Age that he and his wife Zelda Fitzgerald were at the centre of.
