Description: 1922. The year that F Scott Fitzgerald chose as a backdrop for his most famous novel The Great Gatsby. This book takes you on a journey through the diaries of the actors, artists, dancers, film-makers, politicians and scientists whose lives and works collided over twelve months, creating a frenzy of innovation and the beginning of a new era.
Synopsis: 1922. The spectacular year that F. Scott Fitzgerald chose as a backdrop for his most famous novel The Great Gatsby. It was also the year where James Joyce's Ulysses and T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land were published, Alfred Hitchcock directed his first feature, the Ottoman Empire collapsed, Louis Armstrong took the train from New Orleans to Chicago and made Jazz the defining music of the age, and Hollywood transformed the nature of fame. Constellation of Genius is the gloriously entertaining journey through the diaries of the actors, anthropologists, artists, dancers, designers, film-makers, philosophers, playwrights, politicians and scientists whose lives and works collided over twelve months, creating a frenzy of innovation and the beginning of a new era.
