Sinossi
Su una luminosissima spiaggia Rosemary incontra un gruppo di ricchi espatriati americani in giro per l'Europa, dediti a divertirsi e a far bisboccia da mattina a sera, tra i quali spiccano Dick Diver, un brillante psichiatra, e sua moglie Nicole Warren. In quella turbinante e continua ebbrezza, Dick, uomo affascinante e spigliato, sembra essere una mosca bianca, una figura magnetica capace di esercitare un fascino irresistibile su Rosemary, che ne coglie subito la diversità e inizia a provare una forte attrazione per lui. La ragazza si innamorerà, in modo diverso e per sempre, di entrambi i coniugi belli e dannati, solidali in un segreto dolore, espatriati di lusso nella Francia degli anni Venti. Ma ben presto questo mondo inizierà a mostrare le sue ombre. Introduzione di Mauro Conti e Romina Bicicchi.

“I don't ask you to love me always like this, but I ask you to remember. Somewhere inside me there'll always be the person I am to-night.” If you were to meet Dick and Nicole Diver at a party, a restaurant, or on the beach, you would leave them feeling as if you had been in the presence o
Tender Is the Night is a flowery derision of the beautiful people’s world and a bitter tale of ruination. There are man and wife living in comfort and luxury… She is enigmatic and beautiful… She sat in the car, her lovely face set, controlled, her eyes brave and watchful, looking straight ahead toward Leggi tutto
To me the title was the best part of the book.
I was besotted with Scott and Zelda in my youth. Along with Virginia Woolf and Katherine Mansfield I read everything about them I could lay my hands on. And I loved this novel because of how much obvious autobiography it contained. And to some extent the measure of enjoyment you glean from Tender wi Leggi tutto
