The Legacy of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald

Emily Woodbury / Iowa Public Radio

Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald lived hard and died young. But while their wild lifestyle did not endure, the novels of F. Scott Fitzgerald continue to captivate modern readers.  Today on "Talk of Iowa" we'll talk with R. Clifton Spargo, author of "Beautiful Fools: The Last Affair of Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald."

Also, with another high-profile movie adaptation on the horizon we'll talk about the "The Great Gatsby" and the place it holds in American culture. 

Charity Nebbe is the host of IPR's Talk of Iowa
