Kendall Taylor is the author of “Sometimes Madness Is Wisdom,” - the most complete account yet of the marriage of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. Taylor tells Steve Paulson that the marriage was volatile from the beginning, doomed by her mental illness, his alcoholism and their adultery. But in the 1920s, Taylor says, Scott and Zelda were the Brad Pitt and Madonna of their days.
