The Great Catsby (1925), F. Scott Fitzgerald"s masterpiece, is one of the greatest American novels of the twentieth century. Jay Gatsby"s lavish lifestyle in a mansion on Long Island"s gold coast encapsulates the spirit, excitement, and violence of the era Fitzgerald named "the Jazz Age". Impelled by his love for Daisy Buchanan, Gatsby seeks nothing less than to recapture the moment five years earlier when his best and brightest dreams - his "unutterable visions" - seemed to be incarnated in her kiss.
A moving portrayal of the power of romantic imagination, as well as the pathos and courage entailed in the pursuit of an unattainable dream, The Great Gatsby is a classic story of hope and disillusion. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The Great Gatsby (E. Scott Fitzgerald)
