About the book
Set in the summer of 1922 on Long Island, The Great Gatsby is narrated by Nick Carraway, who becomes entangled with his enigmatic neighbor Jay Gatsby and Gatsby’s obsessive hope of rekindling a lost romance with Daisy Buchanan. Through lavish parties, social ambition, and quiet desperation, Fitzgerald examines wealth, status, desire, and self-invention in the Jazz Age. The novel’s power lies in its tension between dazzling surfaces and emotional ruin, making it both a portrait of an era and a critique of the American Dream.
