The Jelly-Bean

Jim Powell is a jelly-bean; a lazy, idle man, who is content to drift through life.

However, when his friend, Clark, invites him to a shindig where Nancy Lamar is going to be, there might be an opportunity for him to mend his ways.

Set in the Jazz Age of the Twenties, 'The Jelly-Bean' is a fascinating tale that doesn't spare the details when it comes to issues such as social awkwardness, gambling, and the booze-soaked party scene.

The sting in the tale's tail is unexpected and haunting.

´The Jelly-Bean´ is a great read for Fitzgerald fans and fans of Mark Twain.
