The Great Gatsby – F. Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel, a consummate summary of the "roaring twenties" and a devastating expose of the "Jazz Age". Through the narration of Nick Carraway, the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions on the Long Island shore, encountering Daisy, her wealthy husband Tom Buchanan, Jay Gatsby and the mystery around him.
The Great Gatsby – classic of American literature, written after the First World War, is considered one of the great novels of the twentieth century.
The Great Gatsby – classic novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald is one of the most significant works of American literature of the 20th century. The book explores dreams, illusions, and disillusionment of a generation during the Jazz Age and the Roaring Twenties.
The protagonist Jay Gatsby is a mysterious millionaire, famous for his lavish parties at his luxurious mansion near New York. Despite his wealth and fame, his ultimate goal is to regain the love of Daisy Buchanan, who is married to another man.
The story is narrated by Nick Carraway, a young man from the Midwest, who witnesses the romantic tragedy, corruption, and moral decay of high society.
