The Crack-Up, essay by F. Scott Fitzgerald, published serially in Esquire magazine in 1936 and posthumously, in book form, in The Crack-Up: With Other Uncollected Pieces, Note-Books, and Unpublished Letters (1945). This confessional essay documents Fitzgerald’s spiritual and physical deterioration in the mid-1930s.
