Book Review With No Sources[edit]

This article is POV heavy, needs plenty taken out or at least referenced. I'd do it but I'm not interested in the subject. --71.168.37.81 (talk) 12:32, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this is more of a scathing book review than a useful encyclopedia article. 67.160.86.119 (talk) 09:25, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Still in 2015 and nobody has taken a look at this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.42.237.185 (talk) 04:40, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Questioning Notability[edit]

A dedicated page for a novel that only sold 1300 copies - until after her death when it attracted interest purely because of its curiosity-value, not its merit? Valetude (talk) 14:08, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I know this is an old post, but for future reference the book is of keen interest for those who study the Fitzgerald's lives, and for theorists who believe that Zelda had a larger role in her husband's writings than he ever gave her credit for. In that vein, if you look at some of their other works, he attached his name as a co-author to another short fiction work that she wrote alone. Besides, the Wikipedia guidelines state that significant coverage is the main factor in notability, which is independent of time. There's nothing on there about the exact context of that coverage, though for sure the coverage has been more varied than the OP stated. --IronMaidenRocks (talk) 05:11, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
