Abstract

In the Zelda Fitzgerald papers at Princeton, an undated sheet of her writing illustrated her dogged need to be working. Whether she conceived this plan during her stay at Prangins or at some later time of her troubled life, she is intent on living each twenty-four hour period to the full:

  • 6 hours study

  • 6 hours work

  • 6 hours play

  • 6 hours sleep
