À propos de cet audio

In The Gatsby Affair: Scott, Zelda, and the Betrayal That Shaped an American Classic, Kendall Taylor examines the dalliance between the Southern belle and the French pilot from a fresh perspective. Drawing on conversations and correspondence with Jozan's daughter, as well as materials from the Jozan family archives, Taylor sheds new light on this romantic triangle. More than just a casual fling, Zelda's tryst with Edouard affected Scott as much as it did his wife - and ultimately influenced the author's most famous creation, Jay Gatsby. Were it not for Zelda's affair with the pilot, Scott's novel might be less about betrayal and more about lost illusions.

Exploring the private motives of these public figures, Taylor offers new explanations for their behavior. In addition to the love triangle that included Jozan, Taylor also delves into an earlier event in Zelda's life - a sexual assault she suffered as a teenager - one that affected her future relationships. Both a literary study and a probing look at an iconic couple's psychological makeup, The Gatsby Affair offers listeners a bold interpretation of how one of America's greatest novels was influenced.

I have learned a bit about Zelda and F Scott Fitzgerald from a number of biographies on Hemingway in Paris, but really had no idea of their lives beyond a few drunk stories. Well, there is a lot to learn, and both were pretty wild. I knew that Zelda was institutionalized, and it’s covered in detail here… including how they used to treat mental issues (it’s not pretty). The books are covered too, of course. I am glad I listened, but it didn’t make me warm go either of them.
