“Can’t repeat the past?” he cried incredulously. “Why of course you can!”
First published in 1925, The Great Gatsby is widely regarded as both F. Scott Fitzgerald’s masterpiece and a quintessential work of American literature. Set against the shimmering backdrop of the Jazz Age, it is an enduring story of wealth, longing, and the elusive American Dream that continues to captivate readers.
The novel follows Nick Carraway, a newcomer to West Egg in New York, as he is drawn into the glittering yet hollow world of his mysterious millionaire neighbor, Jay Gatsby—a man whose lavish lifestyle and parties mask a deep obsession with the past and an unfulfilled love for Daisy Buchanan.
Fitzgerald’s prose is lyrical and penetrating. He peels off the glittering opulence of the Jazz Age New York to reveal a world driven by a longing for love, for reinvention, and for a dream that is forever slipping out of reach.
Today, The Great Gatsby remains an enduring and deeply American story, as it continues to resonate with readers across the globe.
