Before you is a novel that became the second in the work of Francis Scott Fitzgerald — The Beautiful and the Damned. It tells the story of Anthony and Gloria Patch — typical representatives of the upper class of New... York in the 1920s. They are young, attractive, superficial, and focused solely on fulfilling each of their whims. However, the unending pursuit of wealth and pleasures turns into a true tragedy, and the happiness they so desperately sought becomes unattainable. The text of the work is adapted for the Upper-Intermediate level for those continuing to learn English at the higher stage, and is also supplemented with comments and a dictionary.
