The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby is arguably F. Scott Fitzgerald’s most famous and enduring novel, first published in 1925. Set during the Roaring Twenties, it’s a sharp, poignant critique of the American Dream and explores themes of love, obsession, wealth, and social class. The story is narrated by Nick Carraway, a young man from Minnesota who moves to Long Island in the summer of 1922 to learn about the bond business and ends up becoming entangled in the lives of his wealthy and mysterious neighbor, Jay Gatsby.
