This week’s ‘VFTG’ is a bit different, as it features a writer reading another writer’s work. I think this makes it doubly interesting!

  1. I am an F. Scott Fitzgerald fan, and I enjoyed this. The old recording elements brought to mind scenes from “The Kings Speech.”

    • Thanks! I think that these old recordings have such a sense of immediacy; they definitely give a different quality to an otherwise visual (and imaginative) medium.
