Jillian Cantor on Encore – Gatsby’s Women

Welcome to Encore our binge reading episode, where we chat to previous guests of the show about their latest releases. And today we’re talking to Jillian Cantor about Beautiful Little Fools her re-imagining of an American classic from the viewpoint of the female characters. Hi there. I’m your host, Jenny Wheeler. Jillian last appeared on the show in July, 2021, talking about Half Life the Marie Cure story, the fictionalized story of the famous physicist who won the Nobel peace prize twice. You can find that in our backlist at the link below. Today’s book, Beautiful Little Fools is rather different. It takes F Scott Fitzgerald’s jazz age classic, The Great Gatsby and tells of the critical events in that story through the eyes of the three main women characters, Catherine, Daisy and Jordan.
