Publisher Description
"Tender Is the Night" is a novel by American writer F. Scott Fitzgerald. It was his fourth and final completed novel, and was first published in 1934. The title is taken from the poem "Ode to a Nightingale" by John Keats. In 1998, the Modern Library ranked "Tender Is the Night" 28th on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. This edition features a new introduction.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
You can generally count on Naxos to produce superb audios of classics but not this time. Trevor White gives a dull performance, though he handles conversation and dialogue better than straight narration and is not bad at accents. His emphases are stilted; he drops his voice at the ends of most sentences; and he reads every word so carefully he throws off the rhythms and phrasing, and thus the tone and meaning. A disappointing reading of Fitzgerald's last, most lyrical, most autobiographical novel.
