About
The Salamander was so popular that not only did the bestseller make its way to Broadway at the Harris Theatre and find its way to the silver screen, but F. Scott Fitzgerald’s wife, Zelda, modeled herself after the novel’s heroine. Dore Baxter is a free-spirited woman who eccentrically embraces life. Johnson describes the modern woman at the dawn of the flapper era: "She comes roving from somewhere out of the immense reaches of the nation, revolting against the commonplace of an inherited narrowness, passionately adventurous, eager and unafraid, neither sure of what she seeks nor conscious of what forces impel or check her."
