Inhaltsangabe

"The novel is exquisitely written; not a word is wasted. The Great Gatsby is one of the most important works in American literature - and, to many, the great American novel" - The Times The story of the book primarily concerns the young and mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and his quixotic passion and obsession to reunite with his ex-lover, the beautiful former debutante Daisy Buchanan. Considered to be Fitzgerald's magnum opus, The Great Gatsby explores themes of decadence, idealism, resistance to change, social upheaval and excess, creating a portrait of the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream. Many literary critics consider The Great Gatsby to be one of the greatest novels ever written.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald, known as F. Scott Fitzgerald, was an American writer renowned for his works that epitomized the Jazz Age, a term he coined. Born on September 24, 1896, in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Fitzgerald became one of the most prominent novelists of the early 20th century. He attended Princeton University, where his writing career began to take shape. His most famous work, The Great Gatsby, is often cited as one of the great American novels, capturing the disillusionment of the American Dream during the Roaring Twenties. His personal life was marked by his tumultuous marriage to Zelda Sayre, whom he married in 1920, and the couple's extravagant lifestyle served as a backdrop for many of his works. Fitzgerald's writing is deeply influenced by figures such as Edith Wharton and John Keats. Despite early success, his later years were marred by financial instability, alcohol dependence, and personal struggles. He passed away on December 21, 1940, in Los Angeles, California, at the age of 44, leaving behind a legacy as one of America's most celebrated literary figures.
