Abstract
One of the most striking phenomena of American literary history seen after World War II is the extraordinary enthusiasm for F.Scott Fitzgerald both as a man and a writer. In his career of twenty years, as a writer he wrote three of the great American novels. In 1937 Fitzgerald moved to Los Angeles, California where he worked as a script writer. There he started working on The Last Tycoon. The unfinished novel was edited by renowned literary critic Edmund Wilson and published posthumously in 1941.The work is an indictment of Hollywood where Fitzgerald had had a disappointing career as a screen writer.
