'Can't repeat the past? ... Why of course you can!' Often called 'the great American novel', F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby is a story of adulterous love, dreams, and betrayal among the super-rich in 1920s New York. The mysterious and wealthy Jay Gatsby throws extravagant parties while trying to reclaim a lost love. Capturing the excitement and glamour of the era Fitzgerald himself named 'the Jazz Age,' Fitzgerald's incandescent prose brings to life a shimmering world of hot jazz, flowing gin, and brute power, as Gatsby's dreams explode into tragedy. A biting satire of America's illusions about itself, this definitive chronicle of the 1920s is also a timeless exploration of the allure of our own ideals and romantic imagination-and what happens when we fail to live up to them. This authoritative edition is fully annotated with an introduction from Sarah Churchwell, offering new interpretations and fresh ways of thinking about this much-loved masterpiece.

Seller's Description:
Fine. No Dj cover as issued. Fine condition. Arcturus Publishing, 2013. Deluxe edition. Blue hardback(silver lettering to the spine) with illustrated slipcase (small nick on the edges of the slipcase), both in fine condition. The book is as new, gilt edges on the outer edges of the pages. 208pp. A collectable deluxe edition. This is another paragraph Book Description: One of the books that 'everybody should read', this was named the '2nd greatest novel of the 20th century' by the Modern Library and has now been filmed six times, including the latest version directed by Baz Luhrmann and starring Leonardo DiCaprio. This deluxe collector's edition of the timeless classic comes with a luxurious slipcase. With its haunting and evocative depiction of the Roaring Twenties and post-war America, and the backdrop of 1920s America, with its emerging consumerism, glamour and disillusionment, makes this novel historically relevant and engaging. With psychologically complex characters and an enigmatic antihero at its core, The Great Gatsby is truly a masterpiece of literary fiction, and a classic that everyone should read.
The book arrived just as described and very quickly - My highest recommendation.

The Great Gatsby
This classic novel was just as good, maybe even better, than when I remember reading it in high school.

Awesome!
I read this book back in high school and liked it then. Just a while back i saw that they were turning it into a movie, so i thought i would re read it before i saw the movie. Still a great book. I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. A great classic.
