Book 54 "The Great Gatsby"




The Great Gatsby

By

F. Scott Fitzgerald


The infamous "Great Gatsby". The story told in every single American Literature class across the land. The story about a young man named "Gatsby" whose mysterious and luxurious lifestyle gains the attention of everyone around him, including the eyes and heart of a young married woman, Daisy. The story progresses and tragedy strikes. It's the epic battle surrounding the values of Idealism.


When a novel like "The Great Gatsby" is ranked in almost every single literature corner as being one of the top ten, or most influential, or most noted one must make an attempt to read it. It's amazing how things read after WANTING to read a classic, rather than being FORCED to read a classic by some silly middle school or high school literature curriculum. One of American Literature's Finest...."The Great Gatsby". I can officially mark it off my bucket reading list and move on.
