The Great American Novel of love and betrayal in the Jazz Age.
'I believe that on the first night I went to Gatsby's house I was one of the few guests who had actually been invited.
People were not invited - they went there.
' Jay Gatsby's opulent Long Island mansion throngs with the bright young things of the Roaring Twenties.
But Gatsby himself, young, handsome and mysteriously rich, never appears to his guests.
He stands apart from the crowd, yearning for something just out.
William Collins The great gatsby (collins classics), paperback/f. scott fitzgerald
