Hayley-Marie Axe: The Last Flapper by William Luce

The Mermaid Inn

In a fragmented, witty and deeply emotional monologue Zelda Fitzgerald, wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the muse behind The Great Gatsby, recounts her life. Set in a North Carolina psychiatric sanatorium on the last day of her life. She relives her days as a Southern belle, her passionate but chaotic marriage, and their destructive party-life as the celebrity couple of the Jazz Age.
