Tender is the Night

Già con te! tenera è la notte....

TENDER IS THE NIGHT by F.Scott Fitzgerald

Already with thee! tender is the night. . .

. . . But here there is no light,

Save what from heaven is with the breezes blown

Through verdurous glooms and winding mossy ways.

Series: World classic books

The book reveals the detrimental days of Fitzgerald's past as he lives out his last remaining years with his wife, Zelda. The novel almost mirrors the events that take places as characters are pulled and put back into mental care, and the male figure, Dick Diver, starts his descent into alcoholism. While working on the book, several times he ran out of cash and had to borrow from his editor and agent and write short stories for commercial magazines. The early 1930s, when Fitzgerald was conceiving and working on the book, were the darkest years of his life and, accordingly, the novel has its very bleak elements that he experienced himself.
