About This Novel
"The Great Gatsby" is a novella written by American writer F. S. Fitzgerald in 1925, set in New York City and Long Island in the 1920s. In America during that period, the air was filled with singing and drinking. By chance, the poor clerk Nick breaks into the secret world of the spendthrift tycoon Gatsby. He is surprised to find that the only connection in Gatsby's heart is the little green light on the other side of the river - where his beloved Daisy lives. However, the cold reality cannot tolerate vague dreams. In the end, the goddess in Gatsby's heart is just a material girl in the mortal world. When all the truth is revealed, Gatsby's tragic life also comes to an end. This book is hailed as one of the most outstanding contemporary American novels. Gatsby's tragedy is a typical representative of the disillusionment of the "American Dream". Haruki Murakami once loudly exclaimed that "The Great Gatsby" is "What an indescribable masterpiece! I really want to tell others the beauty of it."
