La vida de Scott Fitzgerald, el autor de El Gran Gatsby daria para una novela casi igual a las que escribio. Bohemio, exitoso, con una vida conyugal accidentada, Scott Fitzgerald supo plasmar en sus pocas obras a esos personajes cinicos y brutales que surgieron despues de la primera guerra mundial. El Gatsby de la novela narrada en primera persona por uno de los personajes es inmensamente exitoso pero tambien inmensamente enfermo por que a pesar de sus riquezas no se puede sobreponer a sus complejos y a su sentimiento de ser inadecuado. Es una obra inolvidable, ejemplo de la produccion de un autor malogrado por que nunca alcanzo en vida lo que aspiraba, exactamente igual que Gatsby. The story of the fabulously wealthy Jay Gatsby and his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan has been acclaimed by generations of readers.

Una novela sobre la lucha de generaciones. Ivan Turgenev (1818-1883) fue uno de los grandes novelistas rusos, pero en su obra se adelanto tanto a su tiempo, por exponer problemas sociales mas que psicologicos, que a pesar de sus grandes meritos nunca fue considerado dentro del puesto que merece su brillante produccion. En "Padres e hijos", obra que en su tiempo causo grandes polemicas por la forma descarnada como mostraba la lucha entre generaciones, Turguenev muestra el retrato de un joven que busca su independencia negandose a aceptar ninguna autoridad. Ivan Turgenev was one of the greatest Russian novelists. In his work he was ahead of his time, because he preferred to expose social problems more than psychological ones. Because of this, he was never given the place he deserved. In this book, Turgenev shows the picture of a young boy who looks for freedom and independence.
