Description
Gatsby's lavish parties and mysterious wealth mask a pathetic devotion to an unworthy woman, and through Nick Carraway's disillusionment, Fitzgerald anatomizes the American Dream as a beautiful, doomed fantasy. The novel's compressed prose and moral judgment remain unmatched in their depiction of wealth, desire, and the past's inescapable hold on us.
