比尔·弗罗辛顿是一名年轻的哈佛毕业生，前途光明，他被邀请登上一艘举办高中舞会的汽船，在那里他遇到并爱上了17岁的梅。但是这桩婚事不被社会看好，因此比尔不得不放手前行，之后他结婚并有了自己的事业，但他仍然痛苦地怀念着河上的那段经历。《爱情小艇和其他故事》是一个凄美的故事，触及了菲茨杰拉德许多小说和故事的核心——渴望和失去的青春的主题，这里包括了他20世纪20年代写的其他鲜为人知的作品，一并探索了他创作才能的多个方面。

A young Harvard graduate with bright prospects, Bill Frothington is invited on board a steamer hosting a high-school dance, where he meets and falls in love with the seventeen-year-old Mae. As the match is not considered socially advantageous enough, Bill moves on, marries and has a career, but he remains painfully nostalgic for that episode on the river. A poignant tale which touches on the themes of yearning and lost youth that are central to many of Fitzgerald's novels and stories, 'The Love Boat' is here presented with other lesser-known pieces which he wrote in the 1920s and explore the many facets of his creative talents.

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940), considered one of the finest American writers of the 20th century, was the author of various novels and short stories chronicling life during the Roaring Twenties.
