      Scott went on to write The Great American Novel The Great Gatsby, though this novel was in part inspired by Fitzgerald's real life. Things... don't end quite happily, and they didn't for Zelda either. She put in a mental institution (and her husband had a lot to do with it), where she died in fire in 1948.

    Reminds me slightly of this excerpt from Sophia Tolstoy’s diaries. I would love a video on them! Their relationship was so messy and Tolstoy was awful to his wife who did so much labour for his writing.
    “I have served a genius for almost forty years. Hundreds of times I have felt my intellectual energy stir within me and all sorts of desires - a longing for education, a love of music and the arts… And time and again I have crushed and smothered these longings… Everyone asks, “But why should a worthless woman like you need an intellectual or artistic life?” To this question I can only reply: “I don’t know, but eternally suppressing it to serve a genius is a great misfortune.”

    Zelda had such an interesting life. I can't wait until Taylor Swift writes a song about it, the last great amercian dynasty style.

    They really should give credit to Zelda, seems like new editions should be printed as The Great Gatsby by Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. Btw this one is also one of my favourite books ever! Also, loved the video ☺️

    The fact that you, specifically, love The Great Gatsby is proof it is Zelda's work. Fight me, world.

    Honestly at this point I want a time machine, so I could go back seduce Zelda , marry her and do all the cooking and the cleaning and just be her little house wife. That's it.

    Honestly this channel is just so fun and makes me so happy - also like legit props to you for fairly criticizing both sides and recognizing that there was a lot more going on than what “either side” would have you know. That said, I am now throughly convinced that they’re both assholes lol
