Reviews
The Great Gatsby remains not just one of the greatest works of American literature, but a timeless evocation of the allure, corruption and carelessness of wealth...a gilded society intoxicated by wealth, dancing its way into the Great Depression., " Gatsby is a connoisseur's guide to the glamour and glitter of the Jazz Age, but it's also a nearly prophetic glimpse into the world to come. Writing at the height of the boom, in the midst of the Roaring Twenties, Fitzgerald detected the ephemerality, fakery and corruption always lurking at the heart of the great American success story . . . A haunting meditation on aspiration, disillusionment, romantic love--and a blistering exposé of the materialism, duplicity, and sexual politics driving what Fitzgerald calls America's true "business": "the service of a vast, vulgar, and meretricious beauty." --Times, " The Great Gatsby remains not just one of the greatest works of American literature, but a timeless evocation of the allure, corruption and carelessness of wealth . . . a gilded society intoxicated by wealth, dancing its way into the Great Depression." -- Times, "His masterpiece, an elegy for the American Dream, the greatest lost cause of them all." -- Los Angeles Times, "The first and greatest modern novel, it has beautiful women, lavish parties, romance, betrayal and murder woven together in an intricately structured plot. A prescient comment on the dying days of a gilded age that is brilliant entertainment with a very eloquent insight." -- Mirror, "It is a marvellously suggestive novel . . . a parable of modern America, and by extension of modern life." -- Daily Telegraph

Synopsis
Love, money, revenge and betrayal - this is the Jazz Age novel that became the great American classic. The world and his mistress are at Jay Gatsby's party. But Gatsby stands apart from the crowd, isolated by a secret longing. In between sips of champagne his guests speculate about their mysterious host. Some say he's a bootlegger. Others swear he was a German spy during the war. They lean in and whisper 'he killed a man once'. Just where is Gatsby from and what is the obsession that drives him? 'Shimmers with a magic that readers have long recognised...Fitzgerald was so far ahead of his time that we are only just catching up with him' Sarah Churchwell, Guardian 'Not just one of the greatest works of American literature, but a timeless evocation of the allure, corruption and carelessness of wealth' The Times, Read F Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel of love, money, revenge and betrayal set in Jazz Age America. Jay Gatsby is a self-made man, famed for his decadent champagne-drenched parties. Despite being surrounded by Long Island's bright and beautiful, he longs only for Daisy Buchanan. In shimmering prose, Fitzgerald shows Gatsby pursue his dream to its tragic conclusion in one of the 20th century's true contenders for the title of 'Great American Novel'.
