Villa America is a 2015 book by Liza Klaussmann. This is an engaging book set in the Cap D’Antibes, a story that was based on the same real life inspirations for Tender is the Night by Fitzgerald.

In this beautiful novel, the author brings Sara and Gerald Murphy to life. Villa America was a real house located on the French Riviera, a place that Sara and Gerald Murphy constructed so that they could escape to it in the twenties.

They belonged to a group of expat Americans that were known for their fancy parties and that helped transform the Riviera into the place known for its partying and glamour that it is still known for today. These carefree days were full of caviar and champagne, but they also rubbed elbows with people who had their share of secrets and were also human.

This is a story that is all about the Lost Generation, a marriage, and ultimately the story of a unique golden age that was too golden to last. Fascinating from the start to the very end, Klaussmann has crafted a unique work that readers will eat up.
