Recenzii

"Fowler channels the lightning in a bottle that's Zelda Fitzgerald in a novel that is as heartbreaking as it is mesmerizing. About love, desire, betrayal, and one extraordinary woman struggling to shine in the world--even as the one she loves best is drawing the shades. Just magnificent." --Caroline Leavitt, " New York Times" bestselling author of "Pictures of You"

"Fowler's richly imagined portrait of the Jazz Age's literary royalty is a wonderfully engaging read. With crisp dialogue and vivid descriptions, Z delivers both a compelling love story and a poignant tale of a woman coming into her own as an artist." --Heidi W. Durrow, "New York Times" bestselling author of "The Girl Who Fell From the Sky

""An utterly engrossing portrayal of Zelda Fitzgerald and the legendary circles in which she moved. In the spirit of "Loving Frank" and "The Paris Wife", Therese Anne Fowler shines a light on Zelda instead of her more famous husband, providing both justice and the voice she struggled to have heard in her lifetime." --Sara Gruen, author of the #1 "New York Times" bestseller "Water for Elephants"

"Fowler's Zelda is all we would expect and more...once she meets the handsome Scott, her life takes off on an arc of indulgence and decadence that still causes us to shake our heads in wonder...soirees with Picasso and his mistress, with Cole Porter and his wife, with Gerald and Sara Murphy, Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas, Ezra Pound and Jean Cocteau. Scott's friendship with Hemingway verges on a love affair--at least it's close enough to one to make Zelda jealous. Ultimately, both of these tragic, pathetic and grand characters are torn apart by their inability to love or leave each other. Fowler has given us a lovely, sad and compulsively readable book." --"Kirkus Reviews "(starred review)
