Lorna reports on the author Zelda Fitzgerald, an iconic figure of the Roaring Twenties in America and in Europe. Not only did she write but she also painted and was an accomplished ballet dancer.
Zelda was one half of the first celebrity couple, with her partner being Lost Generation writer, and author of The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald. To say the two had a turbulent relationship would be an understatement. Famously Scott stole writing from Zelda’s diaries for his own works!
For once Matt actually knows a bit about the topic and almost ruins the whole story at the start!
There’s also talk of Zelda as a feminist revolutionary, Lorna reveals her favourite celebrity couple and Matt worries about the hygiene levels of the 1920s.
