If ever a couple ... became an era, it was F Scott Fitzgerald and his glamorous ""flapper"" wife, Zelda. They were the Jazz Age. - The Independent 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, bestselling author of Water for Elephants Finely researched, entertaining and very plausible. - Vogue UK A brilliant example of what biographical fiction can be. Read it, read it, read it. - The Daily Mail An often superb novel. - Independent on Sunday Fowler articulates the story of Zelda in the first person, encapsulating her struggle exquisitely. She amplifies Zelda's whisper into a lion's roar. Our girl finally gets the justice, autonomy, and recognition she so desperately craved in her lifetime. The era is projected in full technicolour and makes for utterly compulsive reading. - Stylist A treat. - Sunday Times Style Fowler's convincing interpretation of Zelda Fitzgerald and her marriage to the darling of the Jazz Era, F Scott Fitzgerald, is a hypnotic read. - Herald Scotland
