Save Me the Waltz by Zelda Fitzgerald

Save Me the Waltz was written by Zelda Fitzgerald in six hectic weeks while recovering from a breakdown. It is intensely autobiographical:

Southern belle Alabama Begg meets promising artist David Knight during war-time service, and marries him; prolonged honeymoon in Prohibition New York 'when it was always teatime or late at night'; then expatriate years in Paris and on the Riviera lived 'at a broken, strident tempo'; next, Alabama's belated efforts to succeed as a ballet-dancer... a jealous attempt to rival her husband's fame.

Save Me the Waltz was a similar real-life attempt.

But Zelda Fitzgerald's book emerges as much more than a document of spite. It is a forceful, truthful picture of legendary marriage in a fabulous age; one of the most shattering self-portraits of a woman ever committed to paper.
