When F. Scott Fitzgerald's famous novel The Great Gatsby was first published in 1925 its
author received raving reviews from numerous fellow writers but it was not until the post-war
decades that his masterpiece received the worldwide recognition it deserved. Poignantly and
with subtle finesse Fitzgerald tells the story of the dazzling upstart Jay Gatsby who
celebrates lavish parties on his estate in order to win back his lost love - a story about the
power of great feelings and the painful failure of a romantic dream. This edition presents the
grandiose classic of American literature in a special hardcover edition with silver foil
embossing. Englischsprachige Ausgaben der bestverkauften englischen Titel im deutschsprachigen
Raum! Passend zum 100. Erscheinungsjahr (1925) »Whenever you feel like criticizing any one he
told me just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've
had.« Nick Carraway
