New York, 1922. When young and impressionable Midwesterner Nick Carraway moves into the West Egg district of Long Island, he soon finds himself caught up in the life of his mysterious next-door neighbor – elusive millionaire Jay Gatsby. The handsome host of luxurious mansion parties, young and wealthy Gatsby seems to have everything his heart desires. All except one, his now-married former love Daisy Buchanan. Set amongst the sweltering summer heat on the North Shore, this tragic tale follows Gatsby’s increasingly intense pursuit of Daisy as he attempts to win back her heart. But when passion spirals into destructive obsession, it threatens to unleash the dark secret he keeps hidden… Widely considered one of the greatest books ever written, discover F. Scott Fitzgerald’s unforgettable tale of love, loss, glamour and excess – all set amongst New York’s dazzling Jazz Age, where the party never stops. Capturing the disillusionment of post-war life alongside the prosperity of the Roaring 20s, this must-read masterpiece is often dubbed ‘The Great American Novel’ for its cautionary portrayal of the dangers of the American Dream, class and inherited wealth. This fully annotated edition of "The Great Gatsby" includes a biography of the author - F Scott Fitzgerald.
