Love and aspiration in 1920s America

Set amid the excesses of 1920s America, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel brings together a love story and questions of status, ambition, and the promises people attach to the future. The title character is viewed through a narrator whose account distinguishes Gatsby from the society around him, making that contrast part of the book’s frame. This listing presents the complete text as an 88-page paperback reprint of the 1925 edition, in a slim volume.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in classic American fiction set in the 1920s
  • Those seeking a compact paperback edition of Fitzgerald’s novel
  • Readers interested in love stories shaped by questions of status and ambition

Book overview

Complete edition of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Written in and describing the decadent period of 1920's America, Fitzgerald's lyrical verse is a tragically simple love story that is strangely profound. This is a haunting classic that stays with the reader.

 

"Only Gatsby, the man who gives his name to this book, was exempt from my reaction-Gatsby, who represented everything for which I have an unaffected scorn. If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life..."

 

No student of thought should be without this historic book. This 1925 edition is provided in a slim volume with full text at an affordable price.
