Love and Rebellion In the novel Z: a Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald by Therese Anne Fowler, Zelda’s family does not approve of the young writer F. Scott Fitzgerald, but Zelda loves him for being different and intelligent. When Zelda meets F. Scott Fitzgerald at a dance, she immediately notices how mature and handsome he is. “What I did know was that he held himself differently from the other boys—other men, I thought; he had to be in his twenties”’ (42). F. Scott Fitzgerald shows maturity and a funny side after he gets to know Zelda. She like how handsome he looks, and how he is much more exotic than the boys she says she has been dancing with her entire life. After Zelda introduces Scott to her parents, they immediately disapprove of their relationship.
