Lost generation is a new drama based on the biographies and poetic repertory of Francis Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda. During the 20’s the two American writers were protagonists of the “lost generation”, the literary trend made famous by Ernest Hemingway with Fiesta.
The two of them used to hop from one party to another during the years that went from the carefree jazz period, to the great depression in 1929. That same year Zelda was diagnosed with schizophrenia and Scott with depression, and those tragedies marked the crisis of their wedding. He will die of heart disease at the age of 44, and she in a fire that broke out at the hospital where she was interned.
