About the book

Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby is set during the glittering Jazz Age of 1920s America. Narrated by Nick Carraway, the novel centres on the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby, whose extravagant parties conceal a deeply personal ambition: to recapture his lost relationship with Daisy Buchanan. As Gatsby pursues an idealised version of the past, Fitzgerald exposes the emptiness beneath wealth, glamour and social success. The novel explores love, ambition, class, illusion and the corruption of the American Dream, making it one of the defining works of twentieth-century American literature.
