Tender is the Night With Cathy Seipp
Rodger writes: Since you're reading Jeff Meyers' bio of Fitz -- not the best of them out there, but immensely readable -- I have a reading assignment for you: "Tender Is The Night". This much-maligned but awesomely brilliant novel (in many respects better than "Gatsby") will be a revelation to you as it will provide infinite insight into your relationship with Cathy. Of course, you have to reverse the genders: Cathy is Dick Diver and you are Nicole. (Hmmmm, Cathy is Dick Diver? That sounds lewd. Don't blame me. I didn't creae the name of the character.)
