The Great Gatsby

by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Compare to estimated retail price: RM52.00 MYR  

The item you've got your eye on is secondhand. You probably already know that, but just in case!

The Great Gatsby
The Great Gatsby

Jazz Age decadence meets elusive, tragic romance.

"The Great Gatsby" is more than a book; it's a time capsule of the Roaring Twenties, elegantly capturing its allure and empty opulence. Fitzgerald's prose is like fine champagne—effervescent yet poignant, with Gatsby himself an enigma that embodies the era's dreams and disillusionments. If you're drawn to stories that reflect on the human condition with both finesse and critical acuity, this glittering façade of a novel reveals profound truths about the American Dream.

Description

Everybody who is anybody is seen at the glittering parties held in millionaire Jay Gatsby's mansion in West Egg, east of New York. The riotous throng congregates in his sumptuous garden, coolly debating Gatsby's origins and mysterious past. None of the frivolous socialites understands him and among various rumours is the conviction that 'he killed a man'. A detached onlooker, Gatsby is oblivious to the speculation he creates, but always seems to be watching and waiting, though no one knows what for. As the tragic story unfolds, Gatsby's destructive dreams and passions are revealed, leading to disturbing consequences. A brilliant evocation of 1920s high society, The Great Gatsby peels away the layers of this glamorous world to display the coldness and cruelty at its heart.
