An amusing short story collection that reflects the views and tendencies of the time. As with almost all short story collections, some were better than others. My favorites were "The Offshore Pirate", "Bernice Bobs her Hair", "Four Fists", and "Head and Shoulders" - some more with more amusing tendencies, others more serious and reflective. I enjoy Fitzgerald´s writing style generally and next to "Tender is the night", this is one of my favorite works of his.
