Podcast appearances and mentions of Zelda Fitzgerald

Zelda Fitzgerald basically defined the iconic image of a flapper from America's Jazz Age. She was immortalized in fiction by her husband, F. Scott Fitzgerald, who is (debatably) the great American novelist. Sadly, the way he portrayed the sadness behind the glitter and glitz was all too real as well. Zelda was beautiful, witty, charming, and talented, but mental illness, alcohol, financial worries, and misogyny all took their toll.

Nick has six novels and a collection of short stories under his belt, but A Forty Year Kiss may be his first love story.  His mind was set to wondering after he overheard a passionate conversation in his favorite local bar between two older people, a conversation that made him blush just a little. He began playing with the idea of what this couple's back story was. Nick's book asks readers to consider the difference between first love and love between mature adults, how life's baggage affects personal relationships, and whether people can really change.    Nick also talks to us about his rural Wisconsin roots, why he read Babysitter Club books in his childhood, and the debate on whether he should wear a cape.     For our book recommendation section of this episode, we decided to find some of our favorite books we've read as a result of being in a book club together for two decades. For the most part, our book club chooses novels, but there is one memoir in the lot, as well as contemporary fiction, historical fiction, sci-fi, and a classic.    Books Discussed in this Episode:   1- A Forty Year Kiss by Nickolas Butler   2- Shotgun Lovesongs by Nickolas Butler   3- A Paris Year by Janice MacLeod   4- Godspeed by Nickolas Butler    5- Love, Hope & Carnage by Nick Cave and Sean O'Hagan   6- The Fertile Earth and the Ordered Cosmos edited by M.

Au cœur des Années Folles, la Côte d'Azur se transforme en terrain de jeu pour une génération d'artistes et de milliardaires américains en quête de liberté, de soleil et d'exubérance. Parmi eux, Scott et Zelda Fitzgerald incarnent ce moment unique d'insouciance, de fête et de création. Installés à Saint-Raphaël, puis à Antibes, ils vivent un été permanent fait de jazz, de baignades, d'alcool et de folies amoureuses. Scott y écrit Gatsby le Magnifique et commence Tendre est la nuit . Autour d'eux gravitent Cole Porter, Picasso, les Murphy, Dos Passos, Gertrude Stein… Ensemble, ils réinventent l'été sur la Riviera. Mais derrière les rires se cachent les premières fêlures : l'alcool, la jalousie, la folie. La magie se fissure avec le krach de 1929. Cette époque bénie s'éteint, mais laisse une empreinte éternelle sur la légende de la Côte d'Azur.

"LOVE IS THE GREATEST.""Even greater than faith, or hope, or any other thing.We celebrate the love of Valentine's Day and appropriately so. That loving celebration is fun, romantic, even emotional. It is a day set aside once to live love and to express our love to all, but especially so to someone special.Love is a word difficult of definition. In fact, it has many component parts. Love is complex, defining itself, manifesting itself in so many different ways. But love is a force without which we can not live, or live right. It is the stuff of life, and without it, life is mere existence, sterile and harsh. Love is the force, the resource of God, an energy which produces the highest and best relationships with OTHERS, and, as we love ourselves, allows us to live life at its highest levels.TO LOVE AND TO BE LOVED IS THE GREATEST HAPPINESS OF EXISTENCE. Sosaid Sydnie Smith.Love out and in is a daily process which produces the greatest happiness. It does indeed. Nothing feels better than to give love, share love, and experience love.NOTHING.""If you had no one to love, you would never be hurt. But, you would never grow. You would never venture outside your own self-centered needs and perceptions. Your heart would never be cracked open so that God could enter it. To love and love unconditionally is to take risks, and especially the risk of rejection. But nothing energizes and cleanses like love.Profound words about love by a poet unknown. To love another, large or small, is the only real way that one can grow as a human being. The risk of loving produces the risk of hurt but even hurt toughens and matures love. The risk of loving another allows one to VENTURE OUTSIDE and to experience. Doing that allows your very own heart to be CRACKED OPEN so that love in its purest sense could enter, that is God Himself. Loving is always risky, and especially the risk of rejection. Rejection hurts but it is part of the loving process. The risk of love is worth it because nothingenergizes like love, and nothing cleanses like love, NOTHING.""Charles Dickens said that a loving heart is the truest wisdom. Knowing life at its best, the most real and the truest wisdom can only be produced by a loving heart, a heart cracked open and wanting more love.""Robert Schuller said that in the presence of love, miracles happen. Love itself is a miracle and the loving miracle produces other miracles. Miracles can and should happen more often and they can and will happen when:LOVE IS AT WORKTrue love allows us insight, real insight into the character and persona of another:“BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, I CATCH GLIMPSES OF THE YOU GOD CREATED, THE TRUE YOU. I SEE YOUR IMPERFECTIONS AND FAILURES, BUT I CHOOSE TO SEE PAST THEM TO THE REAL YOU. LOVE CREATES A PLACE WHERE YOU ARE FREETO BECOME YOUR COMPLETE SELF.”""What a marvelous statement. Perhaps we can only really know another not completely but only with glimpses and those glimpses made possible only because of love.We are all riddled with imperfections and failures, are we not? We can see past things in our desire to find the real person, the real you. Love breaks down those barriers and produces eyes that truly see.Benjamin Disraeli the great English Prime Minister said that:“WE ARE ALL BORN TO LOVE. IT IS THE PRINCIPLE OF ITS EXISTENCE AND ITS ONLY END.”""Born to love, genetic, all that we really are, the very highest principle itself of existence. And, its only end, like the highest and greatest spiritual commandment that we should love the Lord our God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength and our neighbor as ourselves. In fact, we are known as Christians, followers of the Christ:IF YOU HAVE LOVE ONE FOR ANOTHERLove said another is tough, practical, and active. Love is washing the kitchen floor over and over again. Love is scrubbing the toilet and doing the laundry. Love is taking out the garbage and cleaning the refrigerator. Love is smiling when you are tired, finding reasons to laugh even when you are angry, volunteering for a dirty job, working hard, and making the world a better place.Powerful and profound. Indeed, love is practical. Love is very much in the scrubbing of the toilet. Love is there from the one who takes out the garbage. Love indeed delights in the dirty jobs for when you do for the least of these, you do it unto HIM.""And yet more insight into the God of all love:GOD SAYS TO US, IN LOVE, I HOLD YOU IN MY MIND. I REMEMBER YOU. I HOLD ALL OF THE PIECES OF YOU. THE PAST WOUNDS AND THE PRESENT. AND INLOVE, I KNIT THEM TOGETHER INTO THE PERSON I LOVE, THE PERSON I CREATED TO GIVE ME JOY:""YOU.""Held are we in the mind of God, remembering us even as we remember Him, all of our various pieces, wounds, wrongs, and problems no matter. God knits them together and all become the mosaic, the person God loves, the individual and special you.Love frees us of the weight and pain of life! True love always lightens life's heaviestburdens. True love is a force far more powerful than the weapons of any enemy.Life is a flower of which love is the honey, so said Victor Hugo. Love is knit into the very cells of our bodies. It is written into our DNA. It is encoded in the chemicals that make plants green. It is that which makes the sky blue, the substance of the song of the birds in summer, the whisper of the wind in the trees, the silence of the snow as it falls. Love is the voice of God calling to us endlessly and passionately through all HIS marvelous creation.There is no fear in love. Perfect love drives out fear. The more one loves, the less there is of which to be afraid. Love secures and drives our insecurity. Love at work is the most powerful force and energy of all.Take away love, said Robert Browning, and our earth is a tomb. Without love, life is like dead, lifeless, even meaningless. And, if you wish to be loved, LOVE. Any time that is not spent on love is time wasted.True love is a durable fire in the mind ever-burning, never sick, never old, never dead, from itself never turning, so said Sir Walter Raleigh. The durable fire of love burns unquenchable, always alive, always energizing.The great artist Vincent Van Gogh said:“THE HEART THAT LOVES IS ALWAYS YOUNG. LOVE IS A MARVELOUS BEAUTIFIER. LOVE IS ART AT WORK. I ALWAYS THINK THAT THE BEST WAY TO KNOW GOD IS TO LOVE MANY THINGS.”""Indeed, all of art is love at work and there really can be no great art without love. It beautifies and brings out the best in everything.Here, the words of Thomas Merton:“THE BEGINNING OF LOVE IS TO LET THOSE WHO LOVE BE PERFECTLYTHEMSELVES, AND NOT TO TWIST THEM TO FIT OUR OWN IMAGE. OTHERWISE,WE LOVE ONLY THE REFLECTION OF OURSELVES WE FIND IN THEM.”""The more we are perfectly ourselves, living to our highest and best, the more and better of us there is.Love cures people, the ones who give it and the ones who receive it. Love conquers all things, so said the ancient poet, Virgil.""Love allows us to believe so fully and firmly in God even when He is silent!The great thinker-theologian Soren Kierkegaard profoundly stated that when one has once fully entered the realm of love, the world, no matter how imperfect becomes rich and beautiful. It consists solely of opportunities for love.It is love, said Thomas Mann, not reason that is stronger than death. And that love, stronger than and which conquers death is the love of the Christ on the cross and the resurrection which followed.To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others, said Francois Mauriac. Life is replete with invisible miracles which can only be revealed by love at work.If you love somebody, tell them, so said Rod McKuen. The telling unleashes the energy and the power of love.The heart has its reasons which reason alone can not understand, so said the thinker Blaise Pascal. Love is a dimension in life different from and beyond reason itself. The more the mind the less the heart and consequently the less love. Reason no matter how wise can never understand love.The great theologian Paul Tillich said that the first beauty of love is to listen. One who loves wants to listen more than talk, listen to every word, every expression of thought and emotion which comes from the one loved. Listening, really listening in a caring way, may very well be the highest attribute of true love.For those who love, time is eternity. Love is God's finger on man's shoulder. Love is like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with a winged heart and to give thanks for another day of loving. Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end.Sir Alfred Lord Tennyson said:“TIS BETTER TO HAVE LOVED AND LOST THAN NEVER TO HAVE LOVED AT ALL.”""Love indeed is risky, the risk of rejection but a life lived without true love is a life never really lived at all.I love you, says Anna Corbin, as you are, not as you wish to be. I love you for the real person you are, not the imaginary perhaps I fantasize you could be. I love the real,amazing, utterly unique YOU.""Love in the ultimate, unconditional, love so REAL.If you love until it hurts, really hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love said the wonderfully loving Mother Teresa. True love at work drives away the hurt.""Looking back, said one, I have this to regret. That too often when I loved, I did not say so. Love uncommunicated is love aborted. It is there but never shared. More time is spent judging people which leaves less time to love them.Zelda Fitzgerald said that nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much love the heart can hold. There is no limit to love, none whatsoever. Love is there, always and love takes up when knowledge leaves off. In fact, love is the supreme knowledge, superior to all else.Love's greatest gift is its ability to make everything it touches sacred. Love at work produces the holiest of the holies. The great English statesman William E. Gladstone said the following:“WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE TIME WHEN THE POWER OF LOVE WILL REPLACE THE LOVE OF POWER. THEN WILL OUR WORLD KNOW THE BLESSINGS OF PEACE. POWER KILLS LOVE AND WITHOUT LOVE, THERE IS NO PEACE. THERE ISNOTHING MORE POWERFUL BEFORE AND EVER AGAIN THAN LOVE.”""The theologian Reinhold Niebuhr said the following:“WE ARE SAVED BY THE FINAL FORM OF LOVE, WHICH IS FORGIVENESS. FORGIVING AND FORGETTING ARE THE HIGHEST ACTS OF LOVE RESULTING IN OUR SALVATION. THERE WAS ONE, YEARS AGO, DRIVEN TO THE CROSS BY THE LOVE OF MANKIND PROVIDING IN HIS DEATH THE LIFE AND THE LOVE WE LEAD.THE CROSS WAS THE FINAL AND FORGIVING FORM OF LOVE.”""The crucifixion of the Christ on the cross was indeed the ultimate act of love. The great writer C.S. Lewis said the following:“TO LOVE AT ALL IS TO BE VULNERABLE. LOVE ANYTHING AND YOUR HEART WILL CERTAINLY BE WRUNG AND POSSIBLY BROKEN. LOVE BREAKS DOWN ALL BARRIERS, OPENS WIDE THE HEART, EXPOSES TRUE INNOCENCE AND RISKS THE WRINGING AND THE BREAKING OF THIS MORE PRIZED POSSESSION. REAL LOVE DEMANDS THIS, CONSTANTLY.”Sir Arthur Pinero said that “those who love deeply never grow old. They may die of old age, but they die young at heart.”That deep love here and now is but a prelude to the perfect love there. In fact, they are one love contiguous and continuous. Love is both earthly and eternal. Love never dies. For there is only one real happiness in life and that is to love and to be loved.The great writer Ralph Waldo Emerson said:“NEVER SELF-POSSESSED OR PRUDENT, LOVE IS ALL ABANDONMENT.”""True love is pure risk, always. Love at work risks hurt to the self and rejection by another. But the risk at work is what makes the word of love so special.""Vulnerability, openness, risk but so great reward.Hear then the marvelous words of the great poet William Wordsworth:“A PERSON CAN BE SO CHANGED BY LOVE AS TO BE UNRECOGNIZABLE AS THE SAME PERSON. LOVE TRANSFORMS, REGENERATES. LOVE PRODUCES CHANGE, EVERYWHERE AND IN EVERYONE. LOVE BETTERS WHAT IS BEST!”""The great philosopher Plato said that love is the best friend of human kind, the helper and the healer of all ills that stand in the way of human happiness. In fact, love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries and without them, humanity can not survive. And for some real definition of the word love, hear the words of Saint Augustine:“WHAT DOES LOVE LOOK LIKE? WHY, IT HAS HANDS TO HELP OTHERS. IT HAS FEET TO HASTEN TO THE POOR AND NEEDY. IT HAS EYES TO SEE MISERY AND WANT. IT HAS EARS TO HEAR THE SIGHS AND SORROWS OF HUMANKIND. THATIS WHAT LOVE LOOKS LIKE!”""Amen and amen. Hands and feet at work, eyes and ears to see and hear human need. Love at work is what love really is.Love comes supreme and most innocently from a child. A child's love is pure, uncomplicated, unconditional, fully trusting. Such innocence opens deep the world of feeling and emotion and it is a return to that childlike love and that ability to love which alone can make complete the adult version of that child. May we all be wise enough to return to the innocent love of a little child.And so my friends, my fellow Americans, we the Crawford Broadcasting Company wish you all of the love possible on Valentine's Day and during Valentine's week. May love in all its forms permeate your life and may you know the supreme love of the One who laid down His life for you. Live love every day and know the real and true meaning of life.And finally, the profound words of poet Emily Dickenson:“IF I CAN STOP ONE HEART FROM BREAKINGI SHALL NOT LIVE IN VAINIF I CAN EASE ONE LIFE THE ACHING OR COOL ONE PAINOR HELP ONE FAINTING ROBIN IN TO HIS NEST AGAINI SHALL NOT LIVE IN VAIN!”""Love is the greatest!"

Josephine Baker was only 20 years old when she recorded the song “Dinah” at her first studio session 98 years ago this fall. That was just a year after the provocative dancer/singer arrived in Paris, immediately setting the town on fire with her risqué shows at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées.And a West Virginian was right there to help her light those blazes.Ada “ Bricktop” Smith, a young Alderson, WV, native, was in Paris several years ahead of Baker, entertaining at composer Cole Porter's famous parties, often teaching his guests the latest dance crazes, such as the Charleston and the Black Bottom. Josephine Baker always acknowledged she was one Ada Smith's protégés in those heady early days of The Jazz Age.“I didn't get my first break on Broadway,” Baker told London's Guardian a half century later. No, she was just a nameless hoofer in the chorus line in those New York shows, she said, but “I became famous first in France in the Twenties.”“Oh yes,” she added, “Bricktop was there. Me and her were the only two, and we had a marvelous time. Of course, everyone who was anyone knew Bricky. And they got to know Miss Baker as well."Ada Smith became one of 1920s' best known American singers/dancers, owning the famed “Chez Bricktop” in Paris from 1924 to 1961. She even got a shout-out in Woody Allen's hit film, Midnight in Paris, in 2011 when the character of Zelda Fitzgerald proposes an evening's escapade:In the next scene, Cole Porter, the Fitzgeralds and their fabulous friends pile into a period open car and tear down Parisian streetd into the night.Ending up at Chez Bricktop, they watch Josephine Baker dance (and the Fitzgeralds drink…)Back to the Song“Dinah,” considered an anthem of the Roarin' Twenties, was not quite two years old when Josephine Baker recorded it that autumn day in 1926 in Paris.It was back in The States that she learned the hot number when she sang it at New York's Plantation Club on Broadway as the understudy to Ethel Waters.Obviously, the song was still much on Baker's mind when she strolled into the Odeon studio for her first recording session. The band recruited to accompany her on the date is thought to be members of a group called “Olivier's Jazz Boys.”“Dinah” by then had been introduced to the world by Waters within a year of its composition in 1925. After it was recorded by Waters for Columbia in 1926, the song went on to be waxxed by everyone from Fletcher Henderson and Cab Calloway to Bing Crosby, the Mills Brothers and the Boswell Sisters to Chet Baker, Thelonious Monk and Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli.And, as noted in an earlier Flood Watch article, the tune was famously among the favorites of trumpeter Louis Armstrong, who perform it in most of his numerous live shows and his radio appearances for decades after initially recording it in 1930.Our Take on the TuneWhenever the guys haven't seen each other for a couple of weeks, there's always a special joy when they all get back together again. That was certainly the case at last week's rehearsal. Add to that the fact that Floodster Emeritus Paul Martin dropped by to sit in. That always cranks up the energy level in the room. And you can just hear in this first tune of the evening. This is a public episode.

In this episode, Dan Ryan interviews Amy Michaelson Kelly, a former litigator turned hotel developer and Principal of Hatteras Sky. Amy shares her path from practicing law to creating unique hospitality experiences in Asheville, North Carolina. She's developed the Radical and Zelda Dearest hotels, both providing unique hotel experiences. Amy discusses the importance of community involvement, storytelling in hotel branding, and balancing compliance with creativity. She also talks about her firm's upcoming project, the Asher Adams Hotel in Salt Lake City, Utah. Throughout the conversation, Amy highlights the value of intentionality in independent hotels, the significance of making guests feel celebrated, and the influence of her legal background on her hospitality ventures.Takeaways: Storytelling can differentiate a business and create unique connections with clients, especially in the hospitality industry, where narratives can enhance the guest experience significantly.True hospitality goes beyond mere accommodation; it involves making people feel truly welcome and cared for, often through personal touches and attention to detail.Leaders should not be afraid to take risks and venture into creative territories.Successful leadership often involves balancing rigorous compliance and technical demands with creative freedom. This ensures both operational excellence and innovative guest experiences.Building and maintaining good relationships with local communities and stakeholders is crucial.

From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art.Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here.Click here.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/art-hounds/id525807829A tribute to Jim DenomieExplore the vibrant legacy of Minnesota artist Jim Denomie in "Conversations with Jim," an exhibition at ArtsReach St. Croix in Stillwater. This showcase features 60 new works by artist Dougie Padilla, Denomie's longtime friend, who has created a series of pieces as a dialogue with Denomie posthumously.Carleton College art professor and photographer Xavier Tavera wants people to know about an exhibition of new artwork memorializing Minnesota artist Jim Denomie (1955–2022). His longtime friend artist Dougie Padilla began a series of works in response to — and in conversation with — Denomie after his death. Related Art Hounds celebrate milestones of life Both artists, Tavera says, are masters of color whose paintings tell stories. He says Padilla's bold, spiritual work shows characters with teeth, tails and antlers caught up in conversation with each other. The longer you look at these works, Tavera says, the more deeply you see the narratives these paintings create. “Conversations with Jim,” which contains some 60 new works by Dougie Padilla, is on display ArtsReach St. Croix in Stillwater, which also housed Denomie's final show. The exhibit opens tonight with an artist reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Padilla will also host a gallery talk on April 14 and a poetry reading on April 28. The exhibit runs through May 11. A glimpse into Zelda Fitzgerald's lifeDive into the tumultuous and fascinating life of Zelda Fitzgerald in the one-woman play "The Last Flapper." Staged at Yellow Tree Theatre in Osseo, this compelling production opens its curtains on Friday, offering a unique portrayal drawn from Zelda's real letters and stories.Actress Sarah Dickson recommends the one-woman play “The Last Flapper” about Zelda Fitzgerald, which opens at Yellow Tree Theatre in Osseo on Friday. Zelda inspired her husband, writer F. Scott Fitzgerald, to create the character Daisy Buchanan in “The Great Gatsby.” This show is drawn from Zelda's real letters and stories, and it's told on the last day of her life, which ended in an insane asylum. The show stars Broadway actor Monette McGrath of Marine on St. Croix. “The Last Flapper” is the first of two back-to-back shows mounted at Yellow Tree in partnership with Frosted Glass Creative, and it's billed as a collaboration for Women's Month: two theater companies led by woman artistic directors, mounting a one-woman show. (Dickson performs in the ensuing show, “Seven Keys,” which starts in May.) “The Last Flapper” runs April 5 – 14. Music of the cosmosJoin the celestial journey as the Bakken Ensemble presents a performance inspired by the majesty of the cosmos. This Sunday's concert promises an auditory exploration of the stars and the sky, fueled by recent cosmic discoveries and celestial events.Malinda Schmiechen, an amateur violinist and violist living in Excelsior, has been attending performances of the Bakken Ensemble for years, and she says they're “always extraordinary.” In particular, she loves watching violinist and artistic director Stephanie Arado. “I love how excited she gets when she performs. She's so dynamic. She plays with so much emotion and energy.” Of cellist and artistic director Pitnarry Shin, “She has great expression, great intensity when she plays.” Schmiechen says she always encounters a new, diverse selection of music at their concerts. This Sunday's performance focuses on music that celebrates the stars and the sky. Inspired by recent photographs from the James Webb telescope as well as the solar eclipse on Monday, April 8, this performance contains five works that reach for the stars and the sky. Two are by living composers (Max Vinetz's “Stars on the Ground” for string quartet and Stephen Hartke's “The King of the Sun: Tableau for Violin, Viola, Cello and Piano.” The concert is Sunday, April 7 at 4 p.m. at MacPhail Center for Music's Antonello Hall in Minneapolis.  Pro tip: Schmiechen recommends arriving early to the concert, as tickets are open seating. She loves to sit in the front to get a close-up look at the performers' techniques.

LOVE IS THE GREATEST.Even greater than faith, or hope, or any other thing.We celebrate the love of Valentine's Day and appropriately so. That loving celebration is fun, romantic, even emotional. It is a day set aside once to live love and to express our love to all, but especially so to someone special.Love is a word difficult of definition. In fact, it has many component parts. Love is complex, defining itself, manifesting itself in so many different ways. But love is a force without which we can not live, or live right. It is the stuff of life, and without it, life is mere existence, sterile and harsh. Love is the force, the resource of God, an energy which produces the highest and best relationships with OTHERS, and, as we love ourselves, allows us to live life at its highest levels.TO LOVE AND TO BE LOVED IS THE GREATEST HAPPINESS OF EXISTENCE. So said Sydnie Smith.Love out and in is a daily process which produces the greatest happiness. It does indeed. Nothing feels better than to give love, share love, and experience love. NOTHING.If you had no one to love, you would never be hurt. But, you would never grow. You would never venture outside your own self-centered needs and perceptions. Your heart would never be cracked open so that God could enter it. To love and love unconditionally is to take risks, and especially the risk of rejection. But nothing energizes and cleanses like love.Profound words about love by a poet unknown. To love another, large or small, is the only real way that one can grow as a human being. The risk of loving produces the risk of hurt but even hurt toughens and matures love. The risk of loving another allows one to VENTURE OUTSIDE and to experience. Doing that allows your very own heart to be CRACKED OPEN so that love in its purest sense could enter, that is God Himself. Loving is always risky, and especially the risk of rejection. Rejection hurts but it is part of the loving process. The risk of love is worth it because nothing energizes like love, and nothing cleanses like love, NOTHING.Charles Dickens said that a loving heart is the truest wisdom. Knowing life at its best, the most real and the truest wisdom can only be produced by a loving heart, a heart cracked open and wanting more love.Robert Schuller said that in the presence of love, miracles happen. Love itself is amiracle and the loving miracle produces other miracles. Miracles can and shouldhappen more often and they can and will happen when:LOVE IS AT WORKTrue love allows us insight, real insight into the character and persona of another:“BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, I CATCH GLIMPSES OF THE YOU GOD CREATED, THETRUE YOU. I SEE YOUR IMPERFECTIONS AND FAILURES, BUT I CHOOSE TO SEEPAST THEM TO THE REAL YOU. LOVE CREATES A PLACE WHERE YOU ARE FREETO BECOME YOUR COMPLETE SELF.”What a marvelous statement. Perhaps we can only really know another not completelybut only with glimpses and those glimpses made possible only because of love.We are all riddled with imperfections and failures, are we not? We can see past thingsin our desire to find the real person, the real you. Love breaks down those barriersand produces eyes that truly see.Benjamin Disraeli the great English Prime Minister said that:“WE ARE ALL BORN TO LOVE. IT IS THE PRINCIPLE OF ITS EXISTENCE AND ITSONLY END.”Born to love, genetic, all that we really are, the very highest principle itself of existence.And, its only end, like the highest and greatest spiritual commandment that we shouldlove the Lord our God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength and our neighboras ourselves. In fact, we are known as Christians, followers of the Christ:IF YOU HAVE LOVE ONE FOR ANOTHERLove said another is tough, practical, and active. Love is washing the kitchen floorover and over again. Love is scrubbing the toilet and doing the laundry. Love is takingout the garbage and cleaning the refrigerator. Love is smiling when you are tired,finding reasons to laugh even when you are angry, volunteering for a dirty job, workinghard, and making the world a better place.Powerful and profound. Indeed, love is practical. Love is very much in the scrubbingof the toilet. Love is there from the one who takes out the garbage. Love indeeddelights in the dirty jobs for when you do for the least of these, you do it unto HIM.And yet more insight into the God of all love:GOD SAYS TO US, IN LOVE, I HOLD YOU IN MY MIND. I REMEMBER YOU. I HOLDALL OF THE PIECES OF YOU. THE PAST WOUNDS AND THE PRESENT. AND INLOVE, I KNIT THEM TOGETHER INTO THE PERSON I LOVE, THE PERSON ICREATED TO GIVE ME JOY:YOU.Held are we in the mind of God, remembering us even as we remember Him, all of ourvarious pieces, wounds, wrongs, and problems no matter. God knits them togetherand all become the mosaic, the person God loves, the individual and special you.Love frees us of the weight and pain of life! True love always lightens life's heaviestburdens. True love is a force far more powerful than the weapons of any enemy.Life is a flower of which love is the honey, so said Victor Hugo. Love is knit into thevery cells of our bodies. It is written into our DNA. It is encoded in the chemicals thatmake plants green. It is that which makes the sky blue, the substance of the song ofthe birds in summer, the whisper of the wind in the trees, the silence of the snow as itfalls. Love is the voice of God calling to us endlessly and passionately through all HISmarvelous creation.There is no fear in love. Perfect love drives out fear. The more one loves, the less thereis of which to be afraid. Love secures and drives our insecurity. Love at work is themost powerful force and energy of all.Take away love, said Robert Browning, and our earth is a tomb. Without love, life islike dead, lifeless, even meaningless. And, if you wish to be loved, LOVE. Any timethat is not spent on love is time wasted.True love is a durable fire in the mind ever-burning, never sick, never old, never dead,from itself never turning, so said Sir Walter Raleigh. The durable fire of love burnsunquenchable, always alive, always energizing.The great artist Vincent Van Gogh said:“THE HEART THAT LOVES IS ALWAYS YOUNG. LOVE IS A MARVELOUSBEAUTIFIER. LOVE IS ART AT WORK. I ALWAYS THINK THAT THE BEST WAY TOKNOW GOD IS TO LOVE MANY THINGS.”Indeed, all of art is love at work and there really can be no great art without love. Itbeautifies and brings out the best in everything.Here, the words of Thomas Merton:“THE BEGINNING OF LOVE IS TO LET THOSE WHO LOVE BE PERFECTLYTHEMSELVES, AND NOT TO TWIST THEM TO FIT OUR OWN IMAGE. OTHERWISE,WE LOVE ONLY THE REFLECTION OF OURSELVES WE FIND IN THEM.”The more we are perfectly ourselves, living to our highest and best, the more andbetter of us there is.Love cures people, the ones who give it and the ones who receive it. Love conquers allthings, so said the ancient poet, Virgil.Love allows us to believe so fully and firmly in God even when He is silent!The great thinker-theologian Soren Kierkegaard profoundly stated that when one hasonce fully entered the realm of love, the world, no matter how imperfect becomes richand beautiful. It consists solely of opportunities for love.It is love, said Thomas Mann, not reason that is stronger than death. And that love,stronger than and which conquers death is the love of the Christ on the cross and theresurrection which followed.To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others, said Francois Mauriac. Life isreplete with invisible miracles which can only be revealed by love at work.If you love somebody, tell them, so said Rod McKuen. The telling unleashes the energyand the power of love.The heart has its reasons which reason alone can not understand, so said the thinkerBlaise Pascal. Love is a dimension in life different from and beyond reason itself. Themore the mind the less the heart and consequently the less love. Reason no matterhow wise can never understand love.The great theologian Paul Tillich said that the first beauty of love is to listen. One wholoves wants to listen more than talk, listen to every word, every expression of thoughtand emotion which comes from the one loved. Listening, really listening in a caringway, may very well be the highest attribute of true love.For those who love, time is eternity. Love is God's finger on man's shoulder. Love islike a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with awinged heart and to give thanks for another day of loving. Love is a symbol of eternity.It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of anend.Sir Alfred Lord Tennyson said:“TIS BETTER TO HAVE LOVED AND LOST THAN NEVER TO HAVE LOVED AT ALL.”Love indeed is risky, the risk of rejection but a life lived without true love is a life neverreally lived at all.I love you, says Anna Corbin, as you are, not as you wish to be. I love you for the realperson you are, not the imaginary perhaps I fantasize you could be. I love the real,amazing, utterly unique YOU.Love in the ultimate, unconditional, love so REAL.If you love until it hurts, really hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love saidthe wonderfully loving Mother Teresa. True love at work drives away the hurt.Looking back, said one, I have this to regret. That too often when I loved, I did not sayso. Love uncommunicated is love aborted. It is there but never shared. More time isspent judging people which leaves less time to love them.Zelda Fitzgerald said that nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much lovethe heart can hold. There is no limit to love, none whatsoever. Love is there, alwaysand love takes up when knowledge leaves off. In fact, love is the supreme knowledge,superior to all else.Love's greatest gift is its ability to make everything it touches sacred. Love at workproduces the holiest of the holies. The great English statesman William E. Gladstonesaid the following:“WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE TIME WHEN THE POWER OF LOVE WILL REPLACETHE LOVE OF POWER. THEN WILL OUR WORLD KNOW THE BLESSINGS OFPEACE. POWER KILLS LOVE AND WITHOUT LOVE, THERE IS NO PEACE. THERE ISNOTHING MORE POWERFUL BEFORE AND EVER AGAIN THAN LOVE.”The theologian Reinhold Niebuhr said the following:“WE ARE SAVED BY THE FINAL FORM OF LOVE, WHICH IS FORGIVENESS.FORGIVING AND FORGETTING ARE THE HIGHEST ACTS OF LOVE RESULTING INOUR SALVATION. THERE WAS ONE, YEARS AGO, DRIVEN TO THE CROSS BY THELOVE OF MANKIND PROVIDING IN HIS DEATH THE LIFE AND THE LOVE WE LEAD.THE CROSS WAS THE FINAL AND FORGIVING FORM OF LOVE.”The crucifixion of the Christ on the cross was indeed the ultimate act of love.The great writer C.S. Lewis said the following:“TO LOVE AT ALL IS TO BE VULNERABLE. LOVE ANYTHING AND YOUR HEARTWILL CERTAINLY BE WRUNG AND POSSIBLY BROKEN. LOVE BREAKS DOWN ALLBARRIERS, OPENS WIDE THE HEART, EXPOSES TRUE INNOCENCE AND RISKS THEWRINGING AND THE BREAKING OF THIS MORE PRIZED POSSESSION. REAL LOVEDEMANDS THIS, CONSTANTLY.”Sir Arthur Pinero said that “those who love deeply never grow old. They may die of oldage, but they die young at heart.”That deep love here and now is but a prelude to the perfect love there. In fact, they areone love contiguous and continuous. Love is both earthly and eternal. Love neverdies. For there is only one real happiness in life and that is to love and to be loved.The great writer Ralph Waldo Emerson said:“NEVER SELF-POSSESSED OR PRUDENT, LOVE IS ALL ABANDONMENT.”True love is pure risk, always. Love at work risks hurt to the self and rejection byanother. But the risk at work is what makes the word of love so special.Vulnerability, openness, risk but so great reward.Hear then the marvelous words of the great poet William Wordsworth:“A PERSON CAN BE SO CHANGED BY LOVE AS TO BE UNRECOGNIZABLE AS THESAME PERSON. LOVE TRANSFORMS, REGENERATES. LOVE PRODUCES CHANGE,EVERYWHERE AND IN EVERYONE. LOVE BETTERS WHAT IS BEST!”The great philosopher Plato said that love is the best friend of human kind, the helperand the healer of all ills that stand in the way of human happiness. In fact, love andcompassion are necessities, not luxuries and without them, humanity can not survive.And for some real definition of the word love, hear the words of Saint Augustine:“WHAT DOES LOVE LOOK LIKE? WHY, IT HAS HANDS TO HELP OTHERS. IT HASFEET TO HASTEN TO THE POOR AND NEEDY. IT HAS EYES TO SEE MISERY ANDWANT. IT HAS EARS TO HEAR THE SIGHS AND SORROWS OF HUMANKIND. THATIS WHAT LOVE LOOKS LIKE!”Amen and amen. Hands and feet at work, eyes and ears to see and hear human need.Love at work is what love really is.Love comes supreme and most innocently from a child. A child's love is pure,uncomplicated, unconditional, fully trusting. Such innocence opens deep the world offeeling and emotion and it is a return to that childlike love and that ability to lovewhich alone can make complete the adult version of that child. May we all be wiseenough to return to the innocent love of a little child.And so my friends, my fellow Americans, we the Crawford Broadcasting Company wishyou all of the love possible on Valentine's Day and during Valentine's week. May lovein all its forms permeate your life and may you know the supreme love of the One wholaid down His life for you. Live love every day and know the real and true meaning oflife.And finally, the profound words of poet Emily Dickenson:“IF I CAN STOP ONE HEART FROM BREAKINGI SHALL NOT LIVE IN VAINIF I CAN EASE ONE LIFE THE ACHINGOR COOL ONE PAINOR HELP ONE FAINTING ROBININ TO HIS NEST AGAINI SHALL NOT LIVE IN VAIN!”Love is the greatest!

Zelda Fitzgerald is known as “the first American flapper” and an icon of the Jazz Age, but you may be surprised to learn that beneath the glittering facade, there was substance—and literary talent. Her sole published novel, “Save Me the Waltz,” is a poignant blend of beauty and biography that draws on her complex personal narrative, including her childhood in Alabama, her marriage to F. Scott Fitzgerald, and her attempt to become a professional ballerina in Paris at the age of 25.Joining us is Stephanie Peebles Tavera, an assistant professor of English at Texas A&M University Kingsville and author of the 2022 work “(P)rescription Narratives: Feminist Medical Fiction and the Failure of American Censorship,” from Edinburgh University Press.

Perhaps you're cooked well-done with this topic of boundaries but in my opinion, I don't feel we've even touched the surface. We read the books, we connect with the boundary influencers on Instagram, we even tell our friends over dinner what all of us should do. But are we REALLY doing it? Are we terrified of confrontation (ummm, my hand is raised!)? Is it easier to ghost the person or ignore someone's behavior? Do you find release complaining and declaring how you're being treated like crap, but there's no action because you're afraid? (Again, I'm raising my hand.) Motherhood brings a slew of situations where we have to set boundaries to find peace. I was even told by my best friend to start setting boundaries while you are MARRIED versus when you become a mother. Set them ASAP so the transition is easier when baby comes and the gloves come off. But what if you haven't set the boundaries and nicey nicey you is now feeling she needs to be a big ol' B in order to get her point across? It doesn't have to be that way.

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.  Want more of the ‘20s and the Fitzgeralds?

Did you know that novelist and iconic flapper Zelda Fitgerald was also an accomplished artist? In 1926, she began creating a series of paper dolls for her daughter, Scottie, and continued working on them for much of the rest of her life. Her granddaughter, Eleanor Lanahan, saved and collected these paper dolls which were recently compiled into a beautiful, 128-page book, The Paper Dolls of Zelda Fitzgerald.

Katie points out how the parallels of Zelda Fitzgerald's similar battles to Taylor's as a female writer, and their shared ghostwriting experiences. Sticking with the American Lit theme of Taylor's F. Scott Fitzgerald quote, the archers revisit the incredible sapphic poet that inspires Taylor's quill pen, Emily Dickinson. They compare Taylor's writing in the folklore prologue to two poems about secrets by Dickinson and find that they sing about the same skies full of secrets. Finally, they go through *all* of Taylor's lyrics about hiding, sneaking around, secrets, whispering, covering things up, and lying... Which go back to the beginning of her career.

In late 1930 as Zelda Fitzgerald remained hospitalized in a sanitarium trying to regain her sanity her husband cranked out a frenzied series of stories to pay for her treatment. Out of this whirlwind of effort came "Babylon Revisited," which appeared originally in the February 21, 1931, issue of the Saturday Evening Post and later anchored the fourth and final story collection of his life, Taps at Reveille (1935). "Babylon" is the mack daddy of all Fitzgerald stories, widely hailed as the best of his short fiction and his most widely anthologized. This episode asks why the story enjoys that exalted status. While celebrating its virtuoso craftsmanship and complex characterization, we also note that the story appeals in part because it offers such a capsule portrait of the Fitzgeralds' own biographical tragedy, a hymn to their own self-destruction against the sudden shift from the Boom to the Great Depression. The story also captures the romance of expatriate Paris, which many of its central sites---the Right Bank's Ritz Bar, most famously---still attracting Fitzgerald fans galore each year. This story is hard to top, but we also recognize that it's important not to let its reputation overshadow his other stories.  

Examining the “Crazy” Girl Trope In this episode we're getting into the “crazy girl” trope. Are these portrayals helpful or harmful? Both? Is it okay to laugh at our sadness? Can depression ever be glamorous? We discuss Girl, Interrupted, the return of Tumblr, the idea of the Femcel, Elizabeth Wurtzel, Sylvia Plath, Issa Rae, Michaela Coel, Frances Farmer, Zelda Fitzgerald, Gone Girl & the cool girl monologue, Edie Sedgwick & the sad little rich girl, Orange is the New Black, Glenn Close, Fatal Attraction & the femme fatale, pathological liars, the lack of mental healthcare available, and most importantly how these portrayals in media and in our personal lives impact how we treat celebrities, each other, and ourselves.

Our Christmas Rabbit Hole Episodes rank among the highest. This special episode features classic rock songs and theme songs which feature a spooky theme.  We hope you enjoy this first “Halloween” special from What The Riff?!?Theme from the television series “The Walking Dead”  This post-apocalyptic zombie series ran for 11 seasons, from 2010 until 2022.  It was based on a comic book of the same name and sparked multiple spin-offs.  The minor key and strings set the mood well for this horror series.Theme from the television series “The Munsters”  A television classic that surprisingly only ran for two seasons, from 1964 until 1966, in black-and-white.  Some say the ratings drop that resulted in cancellation of the show was due to competition from "Batman."Run Like Hell by Pink Floyd  This track from “The Wall” features music from David Gilmour and lyrics from Roger Waters, the last collaboration to date from these two.  The song represents the turn to violence in the life of Pink as he orders his thugs to attack the “riff-raff.”Bark at the Moon by Ozzy Osbourne  The first single from the 1983 album of the same name tells of a creature who terrorized a town, was killed, and then returns from the dead.  The song featured the first Ozzy music video.Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath  The title track to the 1980 album of the same name features new front man Ronnie James Dio on vocals, taking over for Ozzy Osbourne in the band.  Dio is also the source of the lyrics for the track.Spirits in the Material World by the Police  Sting wrote this opening track to the Police October 1981 album “Ghost in the Machine.”  It is a psychological and philosophical piece, discussing man's existence and the failure of the institutions around him. Witchy Woman by the Eagles  One of the early Eagles songs, this track was the only song on the debut album for which Don Henley would have a writing credit.  The inspiration was an amalgam of women Henley had met, but the primary inspiration was Zelda Fitzgerald, the muse and wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald.Hells Bells by AC/DC  The lead-off track to the album “Back in Black” starts with the tolling of a 2,000 pound bronze bell.  Today it is used in multiple sports events, as well as being a fantastic Halloween song.Friend of the Devil by the Grateful Dead  This folk rock track appeared on the Dead's fifth studio album, “American Beauty,” from 1970.  It is one of the most covered Dead songs in their catalog.    Feed My Frankenstein by Alice Cooper  While this song was originally recorded by British group Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction, it is more famous in its cover version which Cooper performed in a cameo in the movie “Wayne's World.”  The cover also has guest appearances itself, including Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Nikki Sixx, and Elvira. Superstition by Stevie Wonder  This funky song came out in October 1972 and hit number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1973.  Wonder chronicles a number of superstitions in the lyrics, and warns against the negative effects of being superstitious. Thriller by Michael Jackson  No Halloween song list would be complete without the seventh single from Michael Jackson's sixth studio album of the same name.  Thriller was not originally intended to be a single, but became that in an attempt to boost the album sales.  The video would be scarily expensive, and would be called "the most famous music video of all time" by the Library of Congress.  The tactic worked, as album sales doubled after Thriller's release as a single.

这是一期不合时宜和疲惫娇娃的串台节目，也是一场女生宿舍的四人夜谈。2012年，蔡依林就已经在《大艺术家》的歌词里劝女性不要被“缪斯”和“艺术家”的关系蓝本所迷惑、而失去自己的主体性；然而回望这十年里我们自己和身边朋友所经历的苦恼，不得不说蔡依林算是白唱了，但是人文社科的书不能白读。这期节目，我们试着从流行文化的角度拆解“缪斯”和“孤独的艺术家”的迷思，反思我们自己过去在他者和个人经验中感受到的迷失、成长以及成为自己路上的挣扎。我想这种迷惑以及获得成长的灵感一瞬并非个体的私人感受，而是作为女性共有的感受。 This is a special “girls' chat” episode with our friends from 不合时宜. In this episode, we try to deconstruct the myth of the muse and the lone genius in pop culture and reflect on how it affected us. 【Timestamp】 02:35 “说的文艺一点是聊一聊男性艺术家和女性缪斯，说的不文艺一点就是骂骂男人” 08:17 缪斯的三重身份：素材，伴侣，粉丝 11:46 美国民谣皇后 Joan Baez 和 Zelda Fitzgerald 18:28 缪斯这个词总是和“红颜祸水”的印象联系起来 20:45 缪斯对面的“孤独天才“的自信是从哪里来的 31:30 在宏大叙事和认知失调中寻找自己作为女性的声音 43:28 艺术“自毁倾向”的诱惑，和如何夺回自我？ 01:03:31 如果性别对调，这一切还成立吗 02:35 All of this is just an excuse to vent about men 08:17 The triple identity of the muse: the subject, the companion, the admirer 11:46 The story of Joan Baez and Zelda Fitzgerald 20:45 The myth of the lone genius and the source of their confidence 31:30 Finding your voice as a woman in the midst of grand narratives and cognitive dissonance 43:28 The temptation of artistic "self-destructive tendencies" 01:03:31 Can we tell the same story if the gender roles are reversed 我们提到的一些文章和作品： Joan Baez — Diamonds and Rust 纪录片《Woman》 阿列克谢耶维奇《The Unwomanly Face of War: An Oral History of Women in World War II》 波伏娃 《第二性》 电影《Almost Famous》 《看不见的女性》- 卡罗琳·克里亚多·佩雷斯 【本期音乐】 片头：小野洋子 - Every Man Has a Woman Who Loves Him 插曲：Joan Baez - Diamonds And Rust 片尾：小野洋子 - Palumbo Of The Brothers Brothers - Yes, I'm A Witch 如果喜欢这期节目并愿意想要给我们买杯咖啡： 海外用户：https://www.patreon.com/cyberpinkfm 海内用户：https://afdian.net/@cyberpinkfm 商务合作邮箱：cyberpinkfm@gmail.com 商务合作微信：CyberPink2022

Esta es la historia de un amor nada fácil. Bueno, pensándolo bien, ¿qué amor lo es? A finales de la década del 10, en una fiesta de campo, el escritor Francis Scott Fitzgerald conoció a la novelista y bailarina Zelda Sayre. Alguien que se convirtió en un ícono de los años 20 por audaz, por inteligente, por tener una prosa filosa como un puñal y por ser una flapper, así se denominaba en la época a las mujeres que vestían faldas cortas, tomaban bebidas fuertes y conducían a alta velocidad. En definitiva: mujeres que hacían algunas cosas “escandalosas” para la época. Mujeres que con su actitud independiente fueron un faro feminista para las siguientes generaciones. Scott y Zelda se casaron en Nueva York en 1920 y al poco tiempo él publicó “A este lado del paraíso”, una novela que lo convirtió -que los convirtió- en celebridades. Los dos excéntricos. Los dos hedonistas. Los dos amantes de los excesos. El amante del alcohol. Ella con un largo rally por instituciones psiquiátricas. Fue un amor tan tortuoso como intenso y autodestructivo. Uno no podía vivir sin el otro. Pero la vida juntos, a veces, se parecía mucho al infierno. Buena parte de esta historia de amor está en el conmovedor libro “Querido Scott, querida Zelda”, del que elegimos dos cartas. En estos textos, ella le habla de pastillas, le dice “te quiero y tú me quieres y podemos estar agradecidos por eso” y da cuenta de un amor bravo como una tormenta brava. Lee la actriz Yanina Gruden. La ilustración de este episodio es de @danipajarona. — Montgomery. Alabama. Marzo de 1920. Querido Scott: Estuve deseando hacerlo por ti, porque sé el lío que estoy provocando y lo inconveniente que será todo esto- pero es que no puedo ni quiero tomar esas pastillas horribles- así que las tiré. Antes tomaría ácido fénico. Mientras sienta que estoy en mi derecho, no me importa mucho lo que pase. Además, preferiría tener una familia entera antes que sacrificar mi dignidad personal. La gente parece mirar todo desde una perspectiva equivocada- y yo me sentiría realmente como una puta si tomara una sola de esas pastillas, así que trata de entenderme. Por favor, Scott – hace lo que creas mejor- pero no hagas nada hasta que sepamos a qué atenernos, porque Dios, o algo por el estilo, ha hecho siempre que las cosas salgan bien, y quizás esta vez también. Te quiero y tú me quieres a mí, y podemos estar agradecidos por eso. Gracias por el libro- no me gusta. Marzo de 1920. Montgomery. Alabama. Cuando miro hacia el camino y te veo venir, veo a tus pantalones arrugados emerger de todas las tinieblas y brumas que corren hacia mí. Sin ti, querido no podría ver, ni oír, ni sentir, ni pensar, ni siquiera vivir. Te quiero y no voy a permitir que estemos separados una noche más mientras duren nuestras vidas. Estar sin ti es como pedirle piedad a una tormenta, o matar la belleza, o hacerse viejo. Tengo tantas ganas de besarte. En la espalda, en el pecho. Te quiero- y no sé cómo decirte hasta qué punto. Pensar que voy a morir sin que lo sepas. Tenes que esforzarte por sentir lo mucho que te quiero y lo inanimada que me quedo cuando te vas. Ni siquiera puedo odiar a esa gente detestable. Nadie tiene derecho a vivir fuera de nosotros, y están ensuciando nuestro mundo y no puedo odiarlos porque te quiero. Vuelve pronto. No podría soportar estar sin ti, aunque me odiaras y estuvieras cubierto de llagas como un leproso. Aunque te escaparas con otra mujer y me dejaras morir de hambre, te seguiría queriendo, lo sé, Amante, amante mío, cariño mío. Tu esposa. Zelda.

F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby is considered to be a true American classic, but how much of this timeless book consisted of stolen passages? Scott's wife, Zelda, was not only known as America's first "Flapper", but it was clear to everyone around her that she was an amazing writer. So, how much of Scott's writings were actually penned by Zelda's hand?
