Used Book – The Red-Haired Girl, Francis Scott Fitzgerald

A spurned lover gave the beautiful Evie Piper "a gift as hard, as beautiful, as empty, as transparent" as herself: a cut crystal cup. But what strange curse afflicts this cup? Merlin Grainger, a New York bookseller, is captivated by a young woman "with red hair shaded with violet" who always seems to appear at important moments in his life to sow discord. Who is she really? The ghost of a dreamed life? Two tender and disillusioned novellas set in America during the Roaring Twenties.
