In the network appeared the unknown story by Francis Scott Fitzgerald
The New Yorker magazine laid out previously unknown satirical story of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The I. O. U.”, dated 1920.
“The I. O. U.” tells the story of an unscrupulous book publisher, ready to do anything for the sake of high sales. “I’m a publisher. I’m ready to publish any sort of book. I’m looking for a book that can be sold with a circulation of 500 thousand copies. Now is the season of novels about paranormal phenomena,” — said in the last paragraph of the story.
In September 2016, the publishing house Simon & Schuster announced the release of a collection of unpublished short stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald “I’d die for you” (“I’d Die for You”). All works were written in the mid and late 1930-ies and for various reasons was not printed.
