The story of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Sheilah Graham, as told by Graham's son Robert, has a depressingly familiar ring: beautiful, bright lives reduced to a shambles by alcohol and arguments. The relationship revolved - careered, rather - around Fitzgerald's tempestuous relationship with his first wife Zelda, who was locked away for much of her adult life in various upmarket asylums; Sheilah had to fit into the cracks, and as a reader, trawling through the parade of the writer's overgrown adolescent behaviour, you do tend to wonder why she bothered. Still, she lived to a ripe old age, and Westbrook apparently undertook this book at her insistence, so that the full story of the relationship - apparently she was unhappy that - her own 1950s memoir, Beloved Infidel, had suffered from self-censorship - could be told. Well, here it is, all 500 pages of it.
