Staff Reviews

I was excited when we read this novel in class. It really gave me a broadened perspective on my future, and what lies ahead. With a lot of hidden symbolism on what it meant to live "The American Dream", or to live in poverty ("The Valley of Ashes"). This novel is one of my absolute favorites.

Description

Inspired by a romance Fitzgerald had with a socialite, the Great Gatsby is set in the Jazz Age on Long Island, outlining the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and his compulsive preoccupation to be again with his former lover, Daisy Buchanan. The Great Gatsby received generally favorable reviews after its original publication and was adapted to film more than once. Widely considered a literary masterwork, it's in many best books lists, such as the Le Monde's 100 Books of the Century, The Guardian's 100 best novels, etc.
