Written by famous author F. Scott Fitzgerald, this short story relates the rocky relationship of married New York couple Luella and Charles Hemple.

Luella Hemple is selfish. However, because of her beauty, Charles would always forgive her and often blame himself for her mistakes. Believing life will continue in the same vein once divorced, Luella is in for a shock.

This is a poignant, insightful tale about marriage and the effects of divorce when a relationship breaks down.

´The Adjuster´ is the perfect read for fans of Ernest Hemingway's short stories.

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) is one of the greatest American novelists of the 20th century and the author of the classics ‘Tender is the Night’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’, with the latter having been made into a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan.

Skillfully capturing the prosperity of post-World War One America, his writing helped illustrate the 1920s Jazz Age that he and his wife Zelda Fitzgerald were at the centre of.
