Zelda Fitzgerald: Thousands of commuters drive past with nary a wave. Red Line trains zip by, oblivious. Nearby strip malls yawn, according to Times Colonist. But there they are, F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, underneath a canopy of oak trees on the grounds of the historic St. Mary's Catholic Church, their place immemorial marked by a simple, flat, gravestone. It bears the classic last lines of Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby": "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." ROCKVILLE, Md. - No offence, Scott and Zelda, but this plot of land, pinched between Rockville Pike and Veirs Mill Road, is easy to miss. Not exactly the kind of place where you'd expect to find a Great American Writer and His Wife.
