In The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald masterfully explores the allure and tragedy of the American Dream through the life of Jay Gatsby, a self-made millionaire consumed by his obsessive love for Daisy Buchanan. Set against the backdrop of 1920s Long Island, a world of wealth and extravagance, the novel is narrated by Gatsby’s neighbor, Nick Carraway, who reveals the moral decay and shattered dreams hidden beneath the glittering surface of the Jazz Age.
This special annotated edition, part of the Carlini Classics collection, features an insightful biography of Fitzgerald and an annotated guide to his other works, providing readers with deeper understanding and fresh perspectives on this timeless masterpiece of American literature.
