F. Scott Fitzgerald 
Four Fists 

Samuel Meredith is one of those men who just seems to rub people the wrong way. Selfish, arrogant, and supremely ignorant, it seems the only way for him to learn is with a punch to the face. Deliciously funny yet thoughtfully written, 'The Four Fists’ gives us a central protagonist who can either learn from his mistakes or ignore the literal blows that life keeps throwing his way. Published after his debut novel, this is a superb example of Fitzgerald’s earlier works.’The Four Fists’ is perfect for fans of Ernest Hemingway’s short stories. –
