The bestselling Tender is the Night was F. Scott Fitzgerald’s final, and most autobiographical, novel, capturing in fiction the complexity, frustration, depth and ultimate destruction of love between Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda Sayre, who was at the time of his writing confined in a mental institution.A deliberately ambitious work, Tender is the Night is the compelling story of Dick Diver, a gifted psychoanalyst at the beginning of his career, his wife Nicole, one of his patients, and their holiday encounter with Rosemary Hoyt. In his narrative Fitzgerald experimented with point of view and chronology, and drew on psychiatric practices and experimentation as they related to his characters’ experiences.Harper Perennial Classics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.
