Tender is the Night: Francis Fitzgerald

The French Riviera of the mid-1920s is the new playground for rich Americans, among them elegant heiress Nicole Warren and her husband, ambitious psychiatrist Dick Diver. The Divers` renowned hospitality brings celebrities and socialites flocking to their villa, but when a starlet called Rosemary Hoyt finds her way into their charmed circle, the consequences are devastating.
Naive and inexperienced, Rosemary sparks the decline in a relationship already destabilized by a dark secret and undermined by destructive illusions.
Tender Is the Night (1934) has a poignancy linked to the author`s personal experiences with his wife, Zelda.
