Tender is the Night: Francis Fitzgerald

`Well, you never knew exactly how much space you occupied in people`s lives.`

American Dick Diver and his wife Nicole are the epitome of 1920s elegance and sophistication, entertaining friends and pursuing a glamorous lifestyle at their French Riviera villa. When Rosemary Hoyt, a young film star, arrives in France, she becomes entranced by the couple, but it is not long before the dark secrets of their marriage are revealed.
In this acclaimed semi-autobiographical work, F. Scott Fitzgerald explores the destructiveness of intimate relationships in a novel that captures the highs and lows of the Jazz Age.
