Not *****

The Great Gatsby is indeed remarkable. The whole book reflects the extravagant life of that society through telling Gatsby.

That kind of messy circle, that kind of lavish life, and those people who are scattered and scattered. It's very realistic and very sad.

Gatsby's death exposed the ruthless reality and the coldness of human nature. He was so glorious during his lifetime, and the private villa was brightly lit every day. But in the end, at the funeral, except for neighbors, father, housekeepers, servants, and an extra person halfway, no one came to attend. Those so-called friends did not come, and even Daisy did not send a telegram. Life is like a practice. We must cherish the present and live well in the present. We cannot always dwell on the past, which will only make ourselves suffer, unable to extricate ourselves, and delay the present and even the future.

A pious and sacred dream, a dream that has been buried in my heart for many years. Gatsby sacrificed his life for this dream. The soul is pure and great. What he didn't know was that his dream abandoned him very early and was contaminated with the evil of the world. A poor man clutches a faded dream, and the ending is always disappointing. Human nature is generally ungrateful and unjust. Favorable, flock to it like a duck. Harmful, stay away. . But Gatsby's pure soul returned to the dust, and he no longer had to care about the filth of the world. . . Completed on June 14th. .

We seem to be inside and outside at the same time, intoxicated and disgusted by the endless evolution of the tragedy and comedy of life.

No one deserves Gatsby's love.

I stayed up late to finish reading it in one breath, and it was hard to calm down. Especially when I saw the part about Gatsby's father, I realized what true blood is thicker than water. It's really touching. Gatsby may have never thought that the person he kept in his heart was his old father who he may have forgotten.

In the early 20th century, when my country's Qing Dynasty was declining and the nation was looking for a way out, the United States across the ocean had launched an industrial revolution and entered urbanization. The rapid and vigorous economic development had made people's souls unable to keep up with the pace. There were many phenomena of life and extravagance. However, Gatsby was like a breath of fresh air, still maintaining self-discipline in his extravagant life. His loyalty and persistence in love may be for his former dreams, but they are also rare qualities in this materialistic world. Tragically, Gatsby failed to understand people's hearts. He thought Daisy would love her as firmly as he did, but in the end, he lost his life because of it.

The prosperity filled with fame and fortune did not dilute Gatsby's original dreams and beliefs, and the fog floating on the water could not obscure the flickering green light on the other side.

When you are in glory, others call you a king; when you are in decline, others regard you as a slave. In the face of interests, everything is small. Can this be said to be human nature?

Although I admire Gatsby's desperate spirit for love, it also depends on whether the person is worth what he does for her. Obviously Daisy is not worth it. In her eyes, she is self-centered and finally chooses financial resources after weighing the pros and cons. In her eyes, feelings are not as important as money. Gatsby is not worth it

His dream takes him into the void, and it is his dream that gives us a version of The Great Gatsby. Gatsby is growing up like a persistent and fearful child, but he cannot forget his first emotions. There was never a better choice. I just cautiously approached the place where I was chasing. I relied on the faint light from the beginning to reach the present, but in the end I was burned by this weak firelight. He carefully gave her the best, but the fatal thing was that in the end he found that she had no feelings for everything in the past, and he had always been the one to create his own dream.

I felt helpless after reading this book and felt sorry for Gatsby's tragedy. He lost what he regarded as the most precious love. Just because he was poor, and when he worked hard to become a rich man, the white moonlight in his heart no longer belonged to him. He bought a mansion and held banquets almost every day, just hoping to see Daisy. Because she was unhappy with her husband, Daisy did not refuse him but deliberately gave her to him. He hoped, but in the end Daisy abandoned him. In the end, he also lost his own life. Although he had a period of time when he became a rich man, overall, his life was a tragedy. Personally, after reading this work, I feel a little unhappy.

Gatsby's success is not accidental, but inevitable. It can be seen from his carefully designed timetable that he clearly understands what is harmful to him and resolutely abandons it and stops the loss in time. And he has a firm goal, and he truly loves Daisy. I dare to ask how many people in the world can support his five years of waiting day after day just to meet Daisy just by relying on their memories of the past. What he loves most is not Daisy's body or her soul, but the feeling she brings to him, which is enough to support him in the end to succeed. There is never a shortcut to success. If you are not a genius, you can only match it with hard work. You must keep working hard every day. Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, and you will eventually lead to success. What I yearn for is not Gatsby's lavish life and status, because this kind of life will lead to the distortion of my original intention, make my soul full of rottenness, and be surrounded by the hypocrisy of materialistic people.

To be honest, I didn't understand it very well, and I didn't even know why. I always felt confused and melancholy. I think it was probably because of my tragic vision of being passionate about everything.

I watched it once when I was in my twenties, but I had a different impression when I watched it again when I was in my forties. I used to think love was great, but now I think it's just a tragic comedy

"Life is like a journey against the odds. We can stay for our dreams, but we can never be defeated by our dreams." How many people have been inspired by this passage in the book. This great novel established Scott Fitzgerald's position in the history of modern American literature. It is also an outstanding work ranked second among the one hundred best novels selected by American academic authorities in the course of a century of English literature. This book is set in New York City and Long Island in the 1920s, deeply revealing the scars of that era and reflecting the scars of the era.

Most of the friends who are famous and wealthy are unreliable, and true love can only be seen in times of adversity.

Watch the movie first, then read the book. It can be said that the degree of restoration is very high, almost every plot can be matched, and it is very visual when watching. The text of the novel has the feeling of a detached bystander, and the characters depicted are more full-bodied. I've always loved this sense of disillusionment and belief. Really worth reading.

The author of this book not only describes the characters vividly, but the essence is that you can feel the inner activities of each character.

It is a kind of heartache, and there is an insurmountable gap between ideal and reality. At that time, he must have realized how ugly the rose was.

This book is simply the author Fitzgerald mapping his own destiny to the protagonist Gatsby. He made Gatsby fall in love with Daisy, and arranged a miserable life experience for Gatsby who was destined to not get Daisy; but with such ups and downs, Gatsby, who seemed to have no chance, gained unparalleled glory, and he could finally get close to his "princess" again. Unfortunately, in the end, Gatsby lost everything he once had. Career, love, and family property all come from nothing and then turn into nothing. The great thing is not only Gatsby, but also countless ordinary people with ordinary backgrounds and obsessions.

Living in the beauty of the past, not waking up, and finally dying in one's own dream, may be another kind of perfection.

The book is a good book, but maybe it is a translation problem, and there are always some parts that are not clear. The story of Gatsby told from Nick's perspective. Gatsby pursues his fantasy, but unfortunately Daisy is not the same person as him, and her words are full of money. Dreams are both fascinating and dangerous. Are you willing to be doomed?

I feel Nick's loneliness and don't understand why the distance between people's hearts is so far.

It needs to be viewed against the background of the times in the United States at that time, where money comes first. But Gatsby pursues dreams besides money.

The grand banquet at Gatsby's house was like a gorgeous dream. From the moment Daisy attended the banquet, the dream began to break. Gatsby's unexpected death allowed us to see the indifference and selfishness of human nature, an East where money is supreme, and the sorrow of an era.

When reading this book, I put aside my writing background at the time and was moved only by Gatsby's love. Gatsby's love is supreme. The one he loves was born in luxury, so he wants to give her the best life. But in the final outcome, Gatsby's death was brought to him by the person he loved. I think this is the best love for him. This is the best explanation for why Gatsby is great.

Perhaps because I didn't understand the United States at that time, I couldn't fully comprehend some of the subtle language in this book. But the overall storyline is full enough, the characters are extremely three-dimensional, and it is undoubtedly a masterpiece. I hope that I will have a deeper understanding when I read this book again many years later.

It is not a history of struggle, nor a love story, but a life drama
