Office buildings and apartment blocks surround the Catholic cemetery in Rockville, Maryland, USA. Among those interred here is a man whose novels are still read and adored by millions.

Yet you might miss the name on this unremarkable grave, were it not for the occasional bottles, flowers and coins that are placed there by visitors. These additions are the only thing that would otherwise draw the eye to the inconspicuous gravestone of F Scott Fitzgerald.
