Subversive Art of Zelda Fitzgerald

Deborah Pike is Senior Lecturer in English Literature at the University of Notre Dame Australia. She lives in Sydney.

“Challenging, full of energy and interesting, original ideas. Pike’s contention that Zelda Fitzgerald is a Modernist writer who makes a significant contribution to Modernist writing by women is supported by a great deal of well-researched, convincing, and illuminating evidence.”—Sally Cline, author of Zelda Fitzgerald: The Tragic Meticulously Researched Biography of the Jazz Age’s High Priestess; “An impressive, wide-ranging work. It does not simply use biography: it bases its readings and conclusions on a thorough knowledge of all Zelda’s work.”—Linda Wagner-Martin, author of Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald: An American Woman’s Life
