The short story “In the Spring” by Guy de Maupassant was written in an ironic genre.

Babylon Revisited by F. Scott Fitzgerald — Review

The main character of the story “Babylon Revisited” by F. Scott Fitzgerald is an alcoholic trying to overcome his addiction in order to regain custody of his only child.

Some people believe that the writer created this story in response to a letter in which one of his relatives claimed that Fitzgerald was unable to adequately raise his daughter.
