The great gatsby by f. scott fitzgerald

F. Scott Fitzgerald is known as the definitive author of the Jazz Age — the glittering, alcohol-fuelled, and outrageously freewheeling era of post-war euphoria. The Great Gatsby is widely regarded as his magnum opus, a timeless portrait of human longing, love, and the lure of wealth.

The novel follows Nick Carraway, a young American from the Midwest, as he enters the world of East Coast high society in search of work and connection. Along the way, he encounters the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and a cast of vivid characters drawn to the glow of Gatsby’s fortune.

Through this compelling narrative, Fitzgerald explores wealth, class, the American dream, and gender, crafting a story that remains one of the most celebrated works in modern literature. This edition also includes Fitzgerald’s 1931 essay Echoes of the Jazz Age, reflecting on the Roaring Twenties just after their end.

“And I like large parties. They’re so intimate. At small parties there isn’t any privacy.”
