The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a
classic story of love, lust, obsession, and greed.
Jay Gatsby, a newly rich rum-runner/gambler has come to West Egg, Long Island for
the sole purpose of winning back (through throwing lavish house parties and
ingratiating himself with her friends) his one true love Daisy, the girl who
left him for a man with money.
The Great Gatsby will appeal
to those who like classic, literary fiction. Similar titles include: The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton; Night and
Day by Virginia Woolf; An American
Tragedy by Theodore Dreiser; Manhattan
Transfer by John Dos Passos.
