Abstract

It is a well-established notion that in his writings, F. scott fitzgerald was able to capture the spirit of the 1920's like few other authors. As a member of the Lost Generation, the group of writers who worked in the years following the First World War, fitzgerald's novels and short stories are rife with the wealth, luxury, splendor, and decadence of the times. However, behind this analysis of the social order of America during the Roaring Twenties, lies a hidden criticism of capitalism as a corrupt and dying economic system that mirrors the values and ideas of Karl Marx and his "Communist Manifesto." Consequently, a predominantly Communist theme that is common in much of fitzgerald's work is the idea that capitalism transforms everything, and everybody, into a "commercial commodity." Specifically, in "The Great Gatsby," "Bernice Bobs Her Hair," and "Head and Shoulders," fitzgerald displays how Daisy, Bernice, and Marcia are viewed by society as objects to be bought and sold, with their attractiveness as purchases depending largely on their presentation of themselves .
