The Great Gatsby
Francis Scott Fitzgerald
Set in the summer of 1922 on Long Island during the decadent Roaring Twenties, the novel is narrated by Nick Carraway, a young man who moves to West Egg and becomes neighbor to the enigmatic millionaire Jay Gatsby. Gatsby is known for his lavish parties and immense wealth, all of which are a front for his singular, consuming desire: to reunite with his lost love, the now-married Daisy Buchanan, who is Nick's cousin. The story follows Gatsby’s tragic pursuit of Daisy and his attempts to recapture the past, ultimately serving as a profound exploration and critique of the American Dream, themes of wealth and class, love, ambition, and the moral decay hidden beneath the glittering surface of the Jazz Age.
