Notes
"The Great Gatsby," written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, is a classic American novel set in the Roaring Twenties. The story is narrated by Nick Carraway, a young and impressionable bond salesman who moves to Long Island's affluent North Shore and becomes entangled in the lives of his enigmatic neighbor, Jay Gatsby, and his cousin, Daisy Buchanan. The novel explores themes of wealth, excess, the American Dream, and the illusion of social mobility, all set against the backdrop of extravagant parties and lavish lifestyles. Gatsby, a mysterious millionaire with a shady past, symbolizes the relentless pursuit of an unattainable dream, while Daisy represents the allure of the past and the moral decay of the upper class. Through its vivid characters and richly detailed prose, "The Great Gatsby" delves into the complexities of desire, obsession, and the disillusionment that often accompanies the pursuit of one's dreams in a society marked by materialism and moral ambiguity.
