One of the great literary curios of the 20th century, Save Me the Waltz is the first and only novel by the wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald. During the years when her husband was working on Tender is the Nightâ€”which many critics consider his masterpieceâ€”Zelda Fitzgerald was preparing her own story. The novel strangely parallels evens from her husbandâ€™s life, throwing a fascinating light on Scott Fitzgerald and his work. In its own right, it is a vivid and moving storyâ€”centered upon the confessional of a famous glamour girl of the affluent 1920s and an aspiring ballerinaâ€”that captures the spirit of an era.

In the many writers duscussed herein John Henry Raleigh see the growth of the novel to its present preeminence. Sir Walter Scott's descriptions of Scotch history and scenery and Charles Dickens' unforgettable characters helped popularize the form. In rebellion against the Victorians Samuel Butler satirized hypocrisy and convention in 'The Way of the Flesh'; E. M.0 Forster studied emotional conflicts between individuals in'The Longest Journey' and 'A Passage to India'; D. H. Lawrence used symbolism in 'Lady Chatterly's Lover' and 'Women in Love'. The Americans were not far behind, as Harold Frederic offered convincing descriptions of social problems in 'The Damnation of Theron Ware'; Henry James pioneered a psychological realism in 'A Portrait of a Lady' and 'The Ambassadors'; F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby' compellingly described the human condition. The German author Thomas Mann brought to the novel a mythological psychology in his "Joseph" series, and Mr. Raleigh argues that 'The Holy Sinner' is a coda of the series.
