  1. 1. The Great Gatsby

    A Midwesterner moves to Long Island and becomes drawn into the life of a mysterious, fabulously wealthy neighbor whose lavish parties mask an obsessive longing for a married woman from his past; through the narrator’s wary observations the novel exposes the glitter and moral emptiness of the Jazz Age, class divisions, betrayal and violence, and the ultimate hollowness of the American Dream.
