    Superzelda: The Graphic Life of Zelda Fitzgerald
    • "Dancer, painter, writer, muse, passionate lover, and freethinker, Zelda Fitzgerald is one of the most iconic figures of the Jazz Age. Born in Alabama in 1900, she was only 18 when she met F. Scott Fitzgerald, an ambitious young writer who would turn into one the greatest American authors of all time. Beautiful, talented, irreverent, extravagant, and alcohol-driven, the newly married couple took New York's high society and the whole literary world by storm. They traveled to France, Italy, and Africa; hung out with Ernest Hemingway, Dorothy Parker, and Gertrude Stein; managed to both charm and enrage most of the people they were acquainted with; and ended up destroying their love and themselves--Zelda was diagnosed with schizophrenia and spent more than a decade in psychiatric clinics, tragically dying at 48 in a fire. Superzelda is a thoroughly researched work based on period photographs and documents, as well as on Zelda and Scott's writing. It is a biography, a love story, and a travelogue all wrapped into one."--Amazon.com

      Jules, trent'anni passati, non ha ancora deciso se prendere la patente. Figuriamoci metter su famiglia, o anche solo impegnarsi in un rapporto stabile con una donna. Le sue storie di «single intermittente» sono le cronache di regolari disastri sentimentali. Tra partite di rugby e molte notti di sesso senza amore, l'(auto)ritratto di una generazione di trentenni del tutto impreparati a qualunque responsabilità: indecisi a tutto. Tranne che a restare indecisi.
