Summary
F. Scott Fitzgerald’s unsparing portrait of wealth and want in the Jazz Age comes vividly to life in this intimate performance by JOHN RIDDLE. Anson Hunter is born to fifteen million—and to the conviction that he is different. Brilliant, charming, and fatally proud, he falls for the sincere, luminous Paula Legendre, then hesitates until she slips beyond his grasp. In the aftermath, Anson becomes the fixer and moral custodian of his glittering circle, even as he slides into late nights, strong drinks, and affairs that never touch his heart. From Yale clubs and Long Island lawns to Palm Beach verandas and ocean liners, Fitzgerald tracks a man others rely on—but who cannot surrender control long enough to love or be known. The Rich Boy is a piercing character study of privilege, self-deception, and the loneliness money can’t disguise—told with Fitzgerald’s diamond-cut prose and a keen eye for the ways the very rich are indeed different. Perfect for fans of The Great Gatsby and listeners of literary classics, this evocative reading captures the wit, glamour, and ache of a life gilded on the surface and empty at its core.
