"Flaming Youth" by Samuel Hopkins Adams is a novel published in 1923 under the pseudonym "Warner Fabian." Set during the Jazz Age, it explores the sexual urges and behavior of young women with a frankness that shocked contemporary readers. F. Scott Fitzgerald credited the book with changing American sexual mores by convincing moralistic readers that young women could be "seduced without being ruined." The controversial novel was quickly adapted into a silent film the same year. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
