The last novel of the great Fitzgerald, published after his death. The story of the “golden age” of Hollywood - the era of legendary producers, movie stars and films that became classics of world cinema. The hero of the novel, who continues the gallery of images of “strong men,” considers himself the right to control the destinies of people. But even the strongest men have weaknesses. The weakness of the “last tycoon” is his love for a young starlet, who understands perfectly well: in Hollywood, where everything is for sale, decent girls are very expensive.
