F. Scott Fitzgerald - The Great Gatsby
In this great American classic, Fitzgerald brilliantly captures the disillusion of post-war America. He exposes the moral failure of a society obsessed with wealth, status and ‘lifestyle’. But this novel does more than render the essence of time and place. By chronicling Gatsby’s tragic pursuit of his dream it re-creates the universal conflict between illusion and reality. A conflict Fitzgerald was never able to resolve in his own destructive life with his wife, Zelda. This is a key American novel of exquisite structure and balance.
