About this audiobook
The Vegetable, or From President to Postman is a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald that he developed into a play. In the original publication of The Vegetable, or From President to Postman (1923), F. Scott Fitzgerald included the following quotation on the title page: "Any man who doesn't want to get on in the world, to make a million dollars, and maybe even park his toothbrush in the White House, hasn't got as much to him as a good dog has—he's nothing more or less than a vegetable." Fitzgerald used this quotation, which he claimed came "from a current magazine," as a springboard for his only published play.
