Summary
Francis Scott Fitzgerald: It's a Gentle Night
Spoiled by literary fame, money and an unbridled fashionable life in the elegant meeting places of the then Europe and Hollywood from the "great times", Francis Scott Fitzgerald (1896 -1940) could not understand why his novel It's a Gentle Night received a lukewarm reception from the audience. Times have changed after the collapse of the New York Stock Exchange, the global crisis took the legend of the so-called the lost generation and the audience were no longer interested in portraying its heroes.
Today both readers and critics know that it was in this novel that F. S. Fitzgerald wrote some of his most beautiful pages. The story of the young and successful psychiatrist Dick Diver and his patient Nicole is one of the most beautiful love stories of that period, and at the same time it reveals Fitzgerald as a critic of his own illusions and dreams that a full life and human fulfillment can be achieved with money, youthful beauty and living in a falsely idyllic, decorative world of the rich. Having cured his patient and then wife Nicole to the point where she leaves with another of her own free will, Dick Diver realizes that despite their authentic love, her rich father bought him as a doctor and husband to his daughter. From the French Riviera, where he lived his happiest and most unhappy years, he returns to America with his life hopelessly cut in half, where he is lost.
