F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Eds. Cathy W. Barks and Jackson R. Bryer
PositiveLibrary JournalAlthough Zelda\'s writing was overshadowed by Scott\'s, her letters, youthful and schoolgirlish at first, develop a witty elegance that rivals or surpasses that of her husband ... This collection of letters includes an introduction by the Fitzgeralds\' great-granddaughter, Eleanor Lanahan, and detailed commentary by editors and scholars Bryer (emeritus, English) and Barks (American literature, both Univ. of Maryland) that help to reduce the sensationalism that often characterized the duo and to depict them as intelligent and hardworking, if also dysfunctional ... Fitzgerald enthusiasts will find these revealing letters sad but insightful.
