When Nick Carraway moves to West Egg, Long Island, he has no idea that the lavishly outfitted mansion next to his modest house is home to Jay Gatsby. Eventually, Nick becomes aware of Gatsby's intense interest in his cousin Daisy Buchanan, and when Daisy's brutish husband, Tom, probes Gatsby's background, he uncovers unsavory revelations about his rival's wealth. First published in 1925, F. Scott Fitzgerald's third novel offers a definitive portrait of the opulence and recklessness of the Jazz Age.

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald was first published in 1925. Set in the Jazz Age on Long Island, New York, it tells the story of Jay Gatsby, a wealthy, mysterious, and complex man driven by an obsession with his past, and Daisy Buchanan, a married woman he loved in his youth. Considered one of the greatest novels ever written, it explores the themes of love, loss, and the American Dream. The Great Gatsby has been adapted numerous times for film, most recently in 2013 starring Leonardo DiCaprio as Jay Gatsby. Despite its commentary on a different time period in American history, the story is particularly relevant today--contrasting the glamorous lives of the wealthy with the realities beneath the surface and revealing the fallacy of the American Dream.
