The Pusher-in-the-Face

Bag om The Pusher-in-the-Face

"...the kind of face that makes up crowds, gray in color with ears that shrank back against the head as if fearing the clamor of the city, and with the tired, tired eyes of one whose forebears have been underdogs for five thousand years." -F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Pusher-in-the-Face (1925) The Pusher-in-the-Face (1925) by F. Scott Fitzgerald is one of many short stories the author published in magazines of the time. The story, which debuted in Woman's Home Companion, centers on Charles David Stuart who is being tried for pushing a woman in the face because she was talking during a movie. The judge believes the assault justified, and Stuart is set free. With renewed bravado, Stuart continues the act of pushing annoying people in the face. This delightful romp through the trials of daily life is a must-read for fans of Fitzgerald and classic literature of the twentieth century.
