Compare Gershwin by Edward Jablonski, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This still unrivaled biography portrays with precision and insight the tragically brief life from the Brooklyn tenements to Broadway, Hollywood, and Carnegie Hall of George Gershwin (1898 1937), a man whose music (Lady Be Good, Of Thee I Sing, Rhapsody in Blue, Concerto in F, An American in Paris, Porgy and Bess) and career like F. Scott Fitzgerald's embodied the glamorous success and lost possibilities of the Jazz Age. | Gershwin by Edward Jablonski, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
