Text of the page (random words):
time this is the place le vot chooses to tell us their sex life had dwindled since she took up ballet in any case scott had always thought of himself as the more passive feminine partner according to some evidence zelda literally belittled him by saying his penis was too small to satisfy her she also accused him of being gay for hemingway and this accusation went the rounds although le vot says the gossip macalmon just as readily accused hemingway of being gay so in july they went south on the now regular pilgrimage but not to antibes to cannes he went to visit the murphys but nowadays subjected them to penetrating analysis and endless questions which ended up really pissing them off his health was bad over a decade of alcohol abuse was producing symptoms such as shakiness and coughing blood he now needed alcohol before he could start writing zelda was as obsessed as ever with ballet doing a class every morning and training every afternoon every weekday then on october 24 1929 came the crash on wall street the start of the great depression fitzgerald s worst fears the intimations of disaster that had haunted even his first stories were now realized the depression that would ruin his country became confused in his mind with his own physical moral and emotional ruin p 246 dos passos passed through paris and noted the sad decline in both scott drinking heavily and zelda not in her right mind on 10 december 1929 poet and publisher harry crosby founder of the black sun press which published works by hemingway d h lawrence hart crane james joyce killed himself 1930 in february they took a cruise to algeria scott liked it well enough but bereft of her obsessive ballet practice zelda felt abandoned and anxious scott was to write a series of stories based on ginevra king and the world of 16 year old romance renamed josephine back in paris friends witnessed her obsession about attending her ballet classes come what may also her growing conviction that everyone was talking about her behind her back zelda s first breakdown zelda s reputation was rehabilitated by the ground breaking biography written by nancy milford more recently this was superseded by zelda fitzgerald by sally cline published in 2002 23 april 1930 ten years after her marriage zelda s mental condition became so alarming that a doctor advised treatment at the malmaison clinic just west of paris she arrived in a state of extreme nervousness and anxiety 2 may zelda insisted on being released but continued to suffer from hallucinations heard threatening frightening voices and then attempted suicide again 22 may she entered a clinic in valmont near montreux in switzerland but only physical ailments were treated there and zelda needed a psychiatrist a noted specialist dr oscar forel was called in he diagnosed her case as schizophrenia and recommended temporary isolation and extended treatment two weeks later she was taken to les rives de prangins the luxurious clinic forel had opened at the beginning of that year near rolle on the shore of lake geneva between geneva and lausanne by 1930 standards it was very expensive 1 000 a month and she would remain there until september 1931 p 261 le vot quotes from their letters to each other and scott s letters to dr forel that summer he wrote some 40 000 words for forel where he tries to analyse what went wrong when in which scott unattractively tries to exonerate himself from blame he blames zelda for being sick all the time putting him under relentless pressure to earn money talking about your almost meglomaniac sic selfishness and my insane indulgence in drink whining about his humiliations by the murphys and hemingway these have little to do with mental illness it sounds like eavesdropping couples therapy or divorce meetings with lawyers where both parties unburden themselves of a decade worth of resentments and as usual in such things no one comes out looking good june scott met thomas wolfe in paris july paris vevey caux september lausanne to be close to zelda met and had a brief affair with bijou o connor the 36 year old daughter of diplomat sir francis elliot aristocratic looking wealthy hard drinking she snubbed the rich and showy americans terrified staff and servants smoked cigarettes in a long holder carried a pekinese knew gertrude stein and loathed her november 1930 forel called in eugen bleuler the man who coined schizophrenia p 250 scott took scottie to see zelda but she had a breakdown smashing things up so he took her skiing to gstaad wrote the hotel child december 1930 wrote babylon revisited farewell to his youth and also the roaring twenties his father died aged 77 1931 back in the usa january 1931 paris then a liner from cherbourg back to the states looking back on their time in europe it s a paradox that the couple most associated with america s jazz age and roaring twenties spent half of it outside america abroad and didn t much like it when he came back wrote indecision attended his father s funeral in rockville maryland march 1931 back in switzerland he discovered zelda much better she had gained agency and independence by learning to ski april 1931 wrote flight and pursuit and a new leaf his stories were no longer entertaining their target audience one story was rejected by seven magazines the post let a year go by before publishing flight and pursuit its author s name was no longer on the magazine s cover and the story was dropped to fourth position in the table of contents lake como paris may 1931 his mother passed through paris he flew there to see her and the murphys colonial exhibition july 1931 took zelda out of the asylum to stay at annecy hugely relieved that she behaves normally then caux times he recycled into tender he wrote four stories including emotional bankruptcy to stay with the murphys in the austrian tyrol to munich where scott encountered nazis and for the first time grasped the seriousness of european politics gerald murphy s philosophy of life on a train journey scott and gerald lamented their negative experiences parents dying spouses or children sick his eldest had tb and in a two year period his father father in law and two sons would die after scott remarked how stoically his friend seemed to facing his misfortunes i replied that of course i accepted them but that i didn t feel they were the important things really it s not what we do but what we do with our minds that counts and for me only the invented part of our life has any real meaning the murphys left france for good in 1933 but the good times were long over 15 september 1931 15 months after she entered it zelda left the clinic in les rives de prangins dr forel thought the outlook was favourable on condition that both the fitzgeralds give up liquor forever and that they could avoid their old conflicts they drove to france the car broke down in dijon they took a train to paris in 1925 the decorative arts exposition had crystallized their ideas about the dynamic movement of the jazz age six years later the colonial exposition told a story of work and death the juxtaposition of so many replicas of so many civilizations was confusing and depressing on september 19 they sailed on the aquitania the same liner that had carried them to europe in may 1921 neither of them ever returned to europe new york saw various friends but found depression new york an echoing tomb while they were abroad the empire state building was completed they go to the top and find it a deeply disillusioning experience because it showed the limits of new york and by extension of all his dreams from the tallest structure he saw for the first time that it faded out into the country on all sides into an expanse of green and blue that alone was limitless and with the awful realization that new york was a city after all and not a universe the whole shining edifice that he had reared in his imagination came crashing to the ground montgomery disillusioned they travelled on to montgomery where the old judge was ailing and rented a house with black servants le vot makes a sweeping summary of the past few years and the remaining nine years of his life he would prostitute his talent and kill himself doing it to pay the bills for zelda scottie and himself zelda sketched out a novel and seven short stories then her father the judge died and she felt lost november 1931 scott went to hollywood he was hired by mgm to work on a film adaptation of the redheaded woman a 1931 best seller by katherine brush an imitator of fitzgerald s the film to star jean harlow increasingly unhappy scott took to drinking heavily the last straw was when he made an arse of himself at a party given by mgm boss irving thalberg drunkenly singing a comic song at the end of the week december 1931 thalberg fired him scott turned the event into a story crazy sunday which has real depth and verve which inevitably meant that the staid post turned it down the story was sold to the american mercury for a trifling 200 1932 january the couple went for a break to florida but here zelda s eczema broke out she panicked drank herself unconscious was hysterical this was her second breakdown february 1932 she was hospitalised again at henry phipps psychiatric clinic of the johns hopkins university under the supervision of a dr mildred squires p 265 in the event it was less severe than the first and she settled down to write her second novel when he read it scott was furious because most of it was based on their lives or worse his writing thus the protagonist is named amory blaine the name of the hero of this side of paradise and some of it used material from his work in progress may 1932 scott rents la paix a huge victorian mansion outside baltimore to be near zelda s clinic the estate consisted of twenty acres of isolated rolling country covered with rare trees and shrubs and punctuated with rose gardens there was a tennis court and a small lake for swimming hard to feel too sorry for him june 1932 zelda discharged and comes to live at la paix scott hires a full time secretary part of what had driven zelda mad in the ordinary sense of the word was her utter boredom when on the riviera scott disappeared into his study every day all day what she needed like so many of us was something or somebody to give our days a structure and so her doctors created a daily schedule in the morning she wrote first on sketches for her second novel then when she had finished revising the proofs of save me the waltz on a play she played tennis before lunch and spent the afternoon painting tender here he got down to writing tender is the night le vot thinks what finally allowed him to write it after 6 or 7 abortive starts was the idea of the dialectic between dick and nicole when they were just a hedonistic pair and one becomes a drunk it was anecdote when it was shaped so that nicole leeches off dick so that as dick falls nicole rises then you have a dynamic story after six years of floundering round it was zelda s hospitalisation which crystallised his feelings into a storyline a narrative arc the plot breakthrough was to have his ideal couple nicole and dick diver seen through the eyes of an outsider young naive rosemary hoyt by august he had a new and complete plan now with a clear plan he worked hard and sent perkins the final manuscript in october 1933 1932 his friend edmund wilson s book of critical essays axel s castle was published fitzgerald was flabbergasted to learn his urbane hyper intelligent friend had converted to communism see my review of wilson s to the finland station in september 1932 after the tragic death of his wife margaret wilson spent three weeks at the clifton springs sanatorium and clinic dealing with severe depression and alcoholism it wasn t just scott it was something generational october 1932 zelda s novel save me the waltz was published only 1 392 copies were sold and all zelda earned from it was 120 73 still she had knocked it off in a year while scott was on year 6 of writing his own novel t s eliot eliot visited johns hopkins to lecture in a chair endowed by bayard turnbull s father eliot stayed with the turnbulls and they knowing fitzgerald s admiration for him invited him to dinner with the poet scott was asked to read the waste land aloud and did so impressively a welcome antidote to the stories about him making an arse of himself in front of edith wharton in la paix scott wrote the last two parts of tender is the night while zelda wrote a long convoluted play scandalabra which was performed by a local theatre troupe to resounding failure so she took to fiery expressionist painting 1933 january 1933 scott went to new york and quarrelled with wilson and hemingway he was arrested for drunk driving a doctor told him to cut down and he drank a bottle of gin in reply reading all his screw ups and relapses really rams it home that alcoholism is a disease le vot gives haunting descriptions of scott pacing round empty rooms in the big mansion muttering to himself the wall covered in diagrams incanting tender to himself february 1933 dos passos went into hospital at johns hopkins with rheumatoid arthritis malcolm cowley was appalled when he visited scott by how ill zelda was and what a hindrance to him but they were entwined for life they argued increasingly when the attended the phipps clinic the specialist there thought scott was as mad as zelda june 1933 zelda set the house on fire and the fire brigade had to be called she was burning old clothes in a disused fireplace scott refused to have the place repaired so he finished working on the novel in the blackened house with part of its roof gone sinister scandalabra was performed and flopped the autobiography of alice b toklas was published on 1 june 1933 and had nice things to say about fitzgerald describing him as the only younger writer who wrote naturally in sentences praising this side of paradise creating the new generation for the public eye and predicting that his works would last as indeed they have august 1933 zelda s brother anthony committed suicide september 1933 scott learned ring lardner had died october 1933 scott sent the finished manuscript to perkins la paix was over they moved to digs in baltimore close to zelda s art school for her painting november 1933 exhausted by 18 months solid work scott took zelda off for a holiday in bermuda december 1933 in bed working on the last two chapters of tender 1934 january scribner s ran the novel in instalments of tender is the night february 1934 zelda had a relapse and went back into the phipps clinic she didn t improve so scott took advice and moved her to craig house a private hospital in beacon new york march 1934 by the time he delivered the final revised draft to perkins tender is the night had been through 17 versions sales it was a long time since gatsby and the heady peak of the jazz decade to anyone who cared fitzgerald had long ago dwindled to a hack writer who churned out...
