The Great Gatsby - Softcover

F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, set in the 1920s, is the great 'jazz age' novel dealing with opulence and the futility of trying to recapture the past. It portrays Gatsby's doomed attempts to win the love of Daisy, and has long been established as one of the finest American novels of all time. This edition includes The Rich Boy, the story Fitzgerald wrote whilst awaiting publication of The Great Gatsby. It provides a short introduction and biography of the author written by literary expert James Marbury (English Literature B.A and M.A.). The text of The Great Gatsby and The Rich Boy are the accepted standard editions. Along with the original 1925 cover, they are public domain entities outside the USA and presented here by the independent publisher Delamere Classics.
