F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote in a friend's copy of Tender Is the Night, If you liked The Great Gatsby, for God's sake read this. Gatsby was a tour de force but this is a confession of faith. Set in the South of France in the decade after World War I, Tender Is the Night is the story of a brilliant and magnetic psychiatrist named Dick Diver; the bewitching, wealthy, and dangerously unstable mental patient, Nicole, who becomes his wife; and the beautiful, harrowing ten-year pas de deux they act out along the border between sanity and madness.In Tender Is the Night, Fitzgerald deliberately set out to write the most ambitious and far-reaching novel of his career, experimenting radically with narrative conventions of chronology and point of view and drawing on early breakthroughs in psychiatry to enrich his account of the makeup and breakdown of character and culture.
Tender Is the Night is also the most intensely, even painfully, autobiographical of Fitzgerald's novels; it smolders with a dark, bitter vitality because it is so utterly true. This account of a caring man who disintegrates under the twin strains of his wife's derangement and a lifestyle that gnaws away at his sense of moral values offers an authorial cri de coeur, while Dick Diver's downward spiral into alcoholic dissolution is an eerie portent of Fitzgerald's own fate.
F. Scott Fitzgerald literally put his soul into Tender Is the Night, and the novel's lack of commercial success upon its initial publication in 1934 shattered him. He would die six years later without having published another novel, and without knowing that Tender Is the Night would come to be seen as perhaps its author's most poignant masterpiece. In Mabel Dodge Luhan's words, it raised him to the heights of a modern Orph

These shoes ARE NOT LEATHER as advertised!
Size: 14, Color: Black
I own 4 pair of Marc Joseph shoes. All were Amazon advertised as Leather uppers and received as such. Made in Brazil out of real leather. Good quality shoes and a fair price. My recent purchases of 2 pair of Marc Jospeh shoes are Amazon advertised as" Leather Uppers". They are NOT leather and I sent them back to Amazon. Made in China. To me this is a bait and switch. Product descriptions should be honest and complete and reveal origin. My previous purchases stated "Made in Brazil" and "Leather Uppers." Since they were Marc Joseph, I thought these 2 recent pair were creditably described so I ordered based on my prior satisfied experience. Shame on me. Marc Joseph has lost a loyal customer.

Sleek and classy loafer
Size: 10.5, Color: Black
Was skeptical on this purchase but I have to say, well worth it. Not super expensive but very comfortable. Wears well for summer dress attire for taking your lady out for a dinner or show. Casual yet classy.
Not a bad buy.

Great price great shoe
Size: 12, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
Excellent shoe. Tried the Sebago penny loafer and the sizing was ridiculous. These J and M are sized perfectly. I’ve had them before and they wear like iron. Very comfortable right out of the box.
