From Little Stack

Film star and filmmaker (as well as Vogue’s favourite couple) Lila and Kurt, are working on a new movie; a feminist adaptation of Tender Is The Night by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Through therapy sessions, diary entries and chapters from different POVs, we’re thrown into a revenge plot so sinister, so clever, so deeply layered. A wild ride from start to finish! 

The characters are certainly not likeable, but they are fascinating, the author regularly blurring that line between who is a victim and who is the one inflicting pain and suffering. The writing is completely beautiful and captivating, making you think, making you question so much. Dazzling and glamorous, but also dark and intense, a love letter to F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Publisher Description

When a beloved actress is cast in a feminist adaptation of a Fitzgerald classic, she finds herself the victim in a deadly game of revenge in which everyone, on screen and off, is playing a part.

Lila Crayne is America’s sweetheart: she’s generous and kind, gorgeous and magnetic. She and her fiancé, visionary filmmaker Kurt Royall, have settled into a stunning new West Village apartment and are set to begin filming their feminist adaptation of Fitzgerald’s Tender Is the Night. To prepare for the leading role, Lila begins working with accomplished therapist Jonah Gabriel to dig into the trauma of her past. Soon, Lila’s impeccably manicured life begins to unravel on the therapy couch—and Jonah is just the man to pick up the pieces. But everyone has a secret, and no one is quite who they seem.

A twisty, thought-provoking, and wildly imaginative novel of construction and deconstruction in conversation with the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sweet Fury is a bold critique of America’s deep-rooted misogyny. With this novel, Bischoff probes the blurred lines between victim and perpetrator and examines the true meaning of justice.
