The Basil and Josephine Stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald
2.5
2.5
Overall very unimpressed with this short story collection. I've loved everything I've read by FSF and I expected/wanted to love this too!
I found all the themes (or at least how they were presented) very shallow and badly rehashed versions of what he's done in previous stories. I found the conclusion to Josephine's stories particularly disappointing; FSF writes brilliant women and I don't understand how he could be at the same time preaching these types of beliefs.
