Scott Fitzgerald, with an introduction by #1 New York Times bestselling author Amor Towles and a foreword by Fitzgerald's great-granddaughter Blake Hazard. Set in the south of France in the late 1920s, Tender Is the Night is the tale of a young American actress, Rosemary Hoyt, and her complicated relationship with the alluring couple Dick and Nicole Diver. A brilliant psychiatrist at the time of his marriage, Dick is both husband and doctor to Nicole, whose wealth pushed him into a glamorous lifestyle, and whose growing strength highlights Dick’s decline. Lyrical, expansive, and hauntingly evocative, Tender Is the Night was one of the most talked about books when it was originally published in 1934 and is even more beloved by readers today. Review: A Marriage story - Tender is the night is a true of the troubled Mr and Mrs Diver that seem to have it all. The characters were hard to like but there were moments that you felt for them and needed to know more. Dick and Nicole Diver are the toast of the French Riviera in the 1920s. Both beautiful, rich and charismatic. But behind it all is two very complicated all to real characters struggling to stay connected to life and each other. The writing is good. F Scott Fitzgerald style of writing leaves a lot to the imagination but gets the point across. A very good read but buckle up it is quite an emotional ride Review: Good Depiction of a Troubled Couple in the Roaring 20’s - I really enjoyed the descriptions of all of the locations in Europe that the main characters live in and visit. Fitzgerald does a great job in depicting the life style and attitudes of ex-pats living in Europe during the 1920s. Dick and Nicole Diver start out with lots of hope and success. However, eventually, they grow apart through her mental illness and his ennui and drinking. This version of the book also provides a good introduction and end notes providing great detail into the period and some of the statements that characters in the book make. Well worth a read. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #11,948 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #48 in Classic American Literature #339 in Classic Literature & Fiction #836 in Literary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 3,161 Reviews | ## Images ![Tender Is the Night (Cover May Vary) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81z1ntFXbrL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Marriage story *by N***S on January 14, 2026* Tender is the night is a true of the troubled Mr and Mrs Diver that seem to have it all.

Well worth a read. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Why is Fitzgerald so attracted to such loathsome characters? *by J***R on June 15, 2010* Now, I have an admission to make. In my own fiction, I tend to get lost in my own little world, fall in love with my language and my parataxis, and subject my reader to little in-jokes that make me laugh. For example, in a recent work of mine, I included a little part about T. S. Eliot's Wasteland. I referenced, what I though to be heavy handedly, the "game of chess" section, and what I hoped to be more oblique, the "death by water" part. This was done because I was trying to get across the theme of decay. Ok, so it did not work. I can accept that fact. Maybe I have to be more aware of the audience, or something along those lines. The point here is that my own idiosyncrasies perhaps do not translate well. I have the same problem reading Fitzgerald that I suppose that people have when reading my own work. Alcoholics living out their own malaise in high society do not interest me. I cannot find the characters that Fitzgerald writes about compelling. I find myself disgusted at their self-indulgent and harmful acts. The knowledge that these characters come from real life in the circles that Fitzgerald lived in pushes me over the edge. He obviously had interest in these sorts of people. It cannot be denied that he the prime chronicler of the Jazz Age. Dick, Nicole and their lot are loathsome characters. I first read this book, two years or so ago, and I have to say that I have no desire to revisit it. There are other more pressing things on the schedule, like washing my hair. Fitzgerald got closer to a sympathetic character when he fleshed out Nick in The Great Gatsby. I think this is because he was portraying someone more like himself. Nick was more of an outsider looking in, or in his case, at the other end of the egg. Fitzgerald is able to create someone who you can sympathize with, because Nick somehow comes across as the most human of the characters that I can remember. Nick possesses a certain sense of longing to belong that seems to be indicative of Fitzgerald himself. He appears as an outsider in this expatriate community, or even the riche community of Gatsby. The question I have is, "Why is Fitzgerald so attracted to such loathsome characters?" He to seems entranced by broken people in circumstances that would seem to be the embodiment of success on some levels. These characters all have a façade that seems smooth and glassy, only you can see the imperfections the closer you get. Dick, Nicole, Rosemary, Abe, Jay, and Nick all have their failings in the realm of fiction. Fitzgerald has his own, and so does Zelda. I have no answers for my own question, and as a reader, I cannot get past this isolation that Fitzgerald uses by focusing on such unsympathetic characters. His writings have long been canonized, and are taught all over, but I have a distance with him that is greater than the one I feel when reading Hemingway. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tender Is the Night (Cover May Vary) - The Great Gatsby: Original 1925 Edition (An F.
