Fitzgerald was very aware that this was part of his appeal, too. And he often lamented that he didn't have more "serious" material like he believed many of his friends, especially Hemingway, did. I think that lament was misplaced. Our material is our material, we don't necessarily choose it. His third collection, All the Sad Young Men, plays with some of these same juxtapositions. Anywho, congrats on the hitching!
