THE GREAT GATSBY - F SCOTT FITZGERALD KARTONIER...

For generations of enthralled readers  the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby has come to embody
all the glamour and decadence of the Roaring Twenties. To F. Scott Fitzgerald’s bemused
narrator  Nick Carraway  Gatsby appears to have emerged out of nowhere  evading questions about
his murky past and throwing dazzling parties at his luxurious mansion. Nick finds something
both appalling and appealing in the intensity of his new neighbor’s ambition  and his
fascination grows when he discovers that Gatsby is obsessed by a long-lost love  Daisy
Buchanan. But Daisy and her wealthy husband are cynical and careless people  and as Gatsby’s
dream collides with reality  Nick is witness to the violence and tragedy that result. The Great
Gatsby's remarkable staying power is owed to the lyrical freshness of its storytelling and to
the way it illuminates the hollow core of the glittering American dream. With a new
introduction by John Grisham.
