Beautiful Fools: The Last Affair Of Zelda And Scott Fitzgerald (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

It was an interesting book--I'd like to read more factual accounts of F. Scott and Zelda to see just how accurate this author was...This was just one of those books that caught my eye at the library (the cover photo is actually the same photo as on the book I was hoping to find for book club) and I started reading it, took it home and finished it. Like I said, it more just whet my appetite to learn more about the Fitzgerald's who seem to be a sad example of the unavoidable let-down that came after the roaring 20's. R. Clifton Spargo’s Beautiful Fools is brilliant work...one of those novels that I could visualize as I read along and one that I did not want to end. Paragraphs that sometimes demanded re-reading because of their intensity and depth. An identification on my part that will not soon be shaken because I can still feel Zelda & Scott's desperation and humanity. And chaos. Beautiful and masterful work, really. With an intellectual style of writing that challenges the reader to discard the illusion of catharsis grounded in Aristotelian homogeneity, Spargo masterfully depicts the non-cohesive and dissonant reality of the Fitzgeralds.

What do You think about Beautiful Fools: The Last Affair Of Zelda And Scott Fitzgerald (2013)?

A stunning behind-the-scene look into the relationships between Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald.

Didn't finish as it was too hard. Not enough material for a book, but well written.
—VickiP

I couldn't get passed the first chapter, I'm sorry to say.
—Maiquel

Tedious account of self destruction.
