Deliciously funny, ‘Jemina’ is one of those rare things: a story for a story’s sake.

Fifty years ago, way up in the mountains, the Tantrums and the Doldrums fell out over a game of slapjack. That feud has lasted since then, although the two families both run whiskey stills.

Jemina Tantrum is hard at work when a captivating stranger appears. His desire to buy the Tantrums’ property sets a disastrous chain of events in motion.

The obvious humour aside, ‘Jemina’ is evocative of the lives and temperaments of 19th-century Americans.

A laugh-out-loud book, packed with sharp wit and a superb finale, ´Jemina´ is ideal for fans of Mark Twain. F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) is one of the greatest American novelists of the 20th century and the author of the classics ‘Tender is the Night’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’, with the latter having been made into a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan. Skillfully capturing the prosperity of post-World War One America, his writing helped illustrate the 1920s Jazz Age that he and his wife Zelda Fitzgerald were at the centre of.
