Hello All,
The Princeton Alumni Association of Germany warmly invites readers of the Carl Kruse Blog to a live conversation with Sash Bischoff, author of the acclaimed novel Sweet Fury, on December 9 at 17:30 Berlin time.
About the Book
Lila Crayne is America’s sweetheart—radiant, beloved, and preparing to star in a feminist adaptation of Fitzgerald’s Tender Is the Night. As she works with a celebrated therapist to prepare for the role, her carefully curated life begins to fracture. What follows is a tense, layered exploration of truth, power, and identity, where no one is quite who they seem. Both a gripping psychological novel and a sharp critique of American misogyny, Sweet Fury asks pointed questions about justice, the #MeToo movement, and the stories society chooses to believe.
Availability
The book is available in English in hardcover, Kindle, and audiobook.
A German edition is available from S. Fischer:

Event Format
We’ll speak with Sash about the novel’s origins, its dialogue with F. Scott Fitzgerald, her background as an actress and director, and the themes that animate the book—followed by audience Q&A.

RSVP
Spots are limited. Please RSVP no later than December 6, 2025 to lachlyn@alumni.princeton.edu.
