The Great Gatsby

More about the book

The Great Gatsby is not only Fitzgerald's greatest work--to many, it is the Great American Novel. Now, distinctively packaged with a beautifully designed jacket by noted illustrator Malika Favre. 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 into 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.
