A sad story filled with morality and longing, 'Mr Icky' follows a family who is growing up.

While the children experience wealth, high society, and the opportunities they bring with them, they are watched on by their lonely father.

A short story written in a play-like style, Fitzgerald fills it full of morals and satirizes society.

´Mr. Icky´ is perfect for fans of Mark Twain.

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.
