33. When F. Scott Fitzgerald Met Zelda Sayre (Part I)

Prohibition. Jazz. Bobbed hair. & the Fitzgeralds! We’re going back to the 1920s this week to talk about one of literature's most iconic couples: F. Scott & Zelda Fitzgerald. 

You may know Gatsby and Daisy from Scott’s legendary novel “The Great Gatsby.” But behind the writing, Scott’s real-life love story with Zelda was even more wild and fascinating. Many of their letters still exist to this day, and with so much to uncover, we’ve split their relationship into two episodes. In part one, we follow the early days of Scott and Zelda’s relationship as they become engaged, break up, marry, and discover the glamorous, intoxicating worlds of New York and Paris.
