Current:Just started Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald: An American Woman's Life by Linda Wagner-Martin. A look at "one of the 20th century's most intriguing and indosyncratic women. Linda Wagner-Martin's sympathetic and incisive account changes our image of Zelda from devil-may-care flapper to Southern Belle, from to lunatic to professional woman, from hysteric to talented writer. Ballerina, author, mother and wife, Zelda was a product of a specific time and place." (Cathy N. Davidson, Duke University)

ReplyDeleteThey're all fun! Until I do a review that says they're not. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'd really like to read Laura Lippman's new novel! I'll be looking forward to your review. I am a new follower.
