Literary Fun Fact of the Day: IT’S FITZGERALD IN DRAG, Y'ALL! My inner Hemgerald (Fitzingway?)
Literary Fun Fact of the Day: IT’S FITZGERALD IN DRAG, Y'ALL! My inner Hemgerald (Fitzingway?) fan girl likes to think that Ernest Hemingway had this picture pinned up in his bedroom, where he stared longingly at it into the night… Anyways, Fitzgerald played a show girl in the Princeton Triangle Club’s musical, “the Evil Eye.” (If you’ve ever read This Side of Paradise, you might remember that Fitzgerald’s fictional alter-ego, Amory, was also part of the PTC.) These pictures appeared in The New York Times, which called Fitzgerald “the most beautiful” showgirl in the production. I think this picture might just explain Nick Carraway’s latent and totally awesome gayness, but we’ll save that topic for another day… -- source link
