This somewhat unpleasant tale, published as a novelette in the Smart Set in July 1920, relates a series of events that took place in the spring of the previous year. Each of the three events made a great impression upon F. Scott Fitzgerald. In life they were unrelated, except by the general hysteria of that spring which inaugurated the Age of Jazz, but in this story, he has tried to weave them into a pattern-a pattern which would give the effect of those months in New York as they appeared to at least one member of what was then the younger generation.

The title novella takes place during the de-mobilization after The Great War, and two of the recently freed soldiers are one thread, another is a young man visiting the city for pleasure including a dance for his Yale fraternity, a previous roommate who has made a mess of his life, and a young woman once of some importance to the distressed young man. Everyone is mostly drunk, most of the story and it feels like you are getting all of their hangovers.
The male gaze is poisonous enough to read. The drunken male gaze is even worse.
In Winter Dreams, well, a man enthralled by his own enthrallment to the object of that gaze is about as bad as it gets without the incels getting involved. (
