  • This is another book I read in high school and in college. Fitzgerald is the epitome of the 20th Century American writer.

With an Introduction and Notes by Guy Reynolds, University of Kent at Canterbury.Generally considered to be F. Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel, The Great Gatsby is a consummate summary of the ""roaring twenties"", and a devastating expose of the ""Jazz Age"". Through the narration of Nick Carraway, the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions which lined the Long Island shore in the 1920s, to encounter Nick's cousin Daisy, her brash but wealthy husband Tom Buchanan, Jay Gatsby and the mystery that surrounds him.
