Abstract (2. Language): 
Unconnected with the cluster stories such as “One Trip Abroad” of Tender Is the Night and untainted by Fitzgerald‟s expatriate experiences in such stories as “Babylon Revisited,” “The Swimmers,” “The Hotel Child,” “Six of One—“ is essentially Fitzgerald‟s response to the Saturday Evening Post‟s editors‟ preference for American stories with setting and theme laid on this side of the Atlantic. Fitzgerald, despite Zelda‟s hospitalization in Prangins, Switzerland, for treatment of her madness, mounting hospital bills, economic insecurity, etc. succeeds in presenting the typical Alger types and his “open hostility toward the rich.” Though undervalued as a story, “Six of One—“deserves recognition and critical appreciation.
