The Pat Hobby Stories

Synopsis

The Pat Hobby Stories by F Scott Fitzgerald A collection of stories about unscrupulous film writer Pat Hobby, a relic from the early days of Hollywood, looking for success in the changing world of the movies. F. Scott Fitzgerald's collection paints a comic portrait of a man unwilling to accept his fate as a thing of the past, an artless, insensitive writer suffering as the decades leave silent film behind. Hobby keeps himself in a world which doesn't respect its elders, particularly not when they are as lazy and scheming as he.
