about

text: F. Scott Fitzgerald

lyrics

in an inhabited room there are refracting objects only half noticed: varnished wood, more or less polished brass,
sliver and ivory, and beyond these a thousand conveyers of light and shadow so mild that one scarcely thinks of them
as that, the tops of picture-frames, the edges of pencils or ash-trays, of crystal or china ornaments; the totality of this
refraction -appealing to equally subtle reflexes of the vision as well as to those associational
fragments in the subconscious that we seem to hang on to, as a glass-fitter keeps the irregularly shaped pieces that may
do some time- this fact might acoount for what rosemary afterward mysically described as ‘realizing’ that there was some one
in the room, before she could determine it. but when she did realize it she turned swift in a sort of ballet step and saw that a dead
man was stretched upon her bed.

‘tender is the night’ 1934
