Why read it?

1 author picked Save Me The Waltz as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Technically a novel, but rooted so specifically in the details of Zelda’s life that her family members all recognized themselves and their town in her writing. A surrealist and poetic coming-of-age story written by the wife of Jazz Age writer F. Scott Fitzgerald during an eight-week period when she was living in a mental hospital. An imperfect and fascinating way to narrate a life.

From Elisabeth's list on memoirs with myth at the heart.
