F. Scott Fitzgerald

Tender is the Night (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The bestselling Tender is the Night was F. Scott Fitzgerald's final, and most autobiographical, novel, capturing in fiction the complexity, frustration, depth and ultimate destruction of love between Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda Sayre, who was at the time of his writing confined in a mental institution.

A deliberately ambitious work, Tender is the Night is the compelling story of Dick Diver, a gifted psychoanalyst at the beginning of his career, his wife Nicole, one of his patients, and their holiday encounter with Rosemary Hoyt. In his narrative Fitzgerald experimented with point of view and chronology, and drew on psychiatric practices and experimentation as they related to his characters' experiences.

F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in 1896, attended Princeton University in 1913, and published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920. That same year he married Zelda Sayre, and he quickly became a central figure in the American expatriate circle in Paris that included Gertrude Stein and Ernest Hemingway. He died of a heart attack in 1940 at the age of forty-four.
