Tales of the Jazz Age (1922) is a collection of eleven short stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Divided into three separate parts, according to subject matter, it includes one of his better-known short stories, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." All of the stories had been published earlier, independently, in either Metropolitan Magazine (New York), Saturday Evening Post, Smart Set, Collier's, Chicago Sunday Tribune, or Vanity Fair. The collection that emerges from this disheartened capitulation and anxious apologising is uneven, which gives a snapshot of an author in transition, struggling to reach richer shores. Some stories already possess the gravity of the later work, in particular one that he had struggled to sell, "May Day," in which Fitzgerald's partygoing crowd encounter the violence of May Day 1919. Here we see the desperate as well as the decadent, the angry alongside the apathetic, in a panorama of "the general hysteria and confusion of values which follow war."
