What a treat to be able to read a fresh-released short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald in 2012! The VERY short story is available free for your reading pleasure on the New Yorker’s website here. A little background on how this came about is on The Atlantic’s Wire, along with some other book news, including the crazy fact that since the Cloud Atlas (awesome, awesome) movie trailer came out, the book has gone from #2509 on the Amazon bestseller list to #7!

By the way, I’m not the only one who looks at Fitzgerald and always thinks of this guy, am I?
