carolinewhitten 's review for:

This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald
3.0

“Here, Heraclitus, did you find in fire and shifting things the prophecy you hurled down the dead years; this midnight my desire will see, shadowed among the embers, furled in flame, the splendor and the sadness of the world”
-
This book will stay in my mind for three reasons
1. It’s heartbreaking
2. Shocking ghost moment
3. Fitzgerald, frankly writes about the moon in the most beautiful way
