Dissertation note: Joshua King has more reasons than most young writers to produce that Great First Novel-and they're sitting in his father's bank account. Before dying of a tragic Viagra overdose, Josh's father put a stipulation in his will: Josh cannot claim his fortune unless he writes a bestselling novel in the next five years. The last thing Josh wants is a purpose in life: he's far too busy traveling, taking drugs, and growing his hair.

Material type: Text; Format:
print
; Literary form:
Fiction
Publication details: Toronto, Canada ; New York : Stoddart, 1998
Dissertation note: Some of the best love stories are set against the background of great events. Think of For Whom the Bell Tolls and The English Patient. Sarah Dearing, while not yet in the same league as Hemingway or Ondaatje, has nevertheless written an engaging romance that takes place in Portugal in the days leading up to the 1974 Revolution. That was when a group of young army officers almost bloodlessly overthrew a 48-year old fascist dictatorship.

This side of paradise / F. Scott Fitzgerald. by Series: Dover thrift editions

print
; Literary form:
Fiction
Publication details: New York : Dover Publications, 1996
Dissertation note: Fitzgerald's first novel, This Side of Paradise (1920) was an immediate, spectacular success and established his literary reputation. Perhaps the definitive novel of that "Lost Generation," it tells the story of Amory Blaine, a handsome, wealthy Princeton student who halfheartedly involves himself in literary cults, "liberal" student activities, and a series of empty flirtations with young women. When he finally does fall truly in love, however, the young woman rejects him for another.
