Great Gatsby, The : F. Scott Fitzgerald

Paperback | FICTION/Classics Set against a backdrop of jazz music, bootlegging, and lavish parties, The Great Gatsby is the story of Midwesterner Nick Carraway’s curious introduction to the decadent world of his mysterious, wealthy neighbor Jay Gatsby, whose thirst for riches is matched only by his tragic obsession with the beautiful Daisy Buchanan. Penned in the “roaring twenties,” the novel continues to be the subject of numerous film and stage adaptations and has become a fixture in the American classroom. This lean, dangerously propulsive tale of the seduction of glitz and glamour continues to be relevant almost a century after it was published. This deluxe, repackaged version of The Great Gatsby will join the ranks of the Harper Perennial Modern Classics Deluxe editions, and will be a necessary addition to any classics lover’s shelf.
