About this ebook

Complete and unabridged, with 99 full-page plates by Winslow Homer, Vincent van Gogh and Jacob Maris. A young man rents a house on Long Island next door to a millionaire who throws parties for strangers and waits, every night, for one particular guest. Fitzgerald wrote the definitive American novel about money and longing in under fifty thousand words, and made his narrator complicit enough to be worth arguing with. Its reputation is deserved, which is rarer than it sounds. Ninety-nine plates by painters including Childe Hassam and Maurice Prendergast, from Maine coves to Venetian quays, catch the American leisure and restless movement of Fitzgerald's Jazz Age.

About the author

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) sold his first novel at twenty-three and married Zelda Sayre the week it appeared. The Great Gatsby, written on the Riviera in 1924, sold poorly and was out of print when he died of a heart attack in Hollywood at forty-four, believing himself forgotten. It has since sold more copies than everything else he wrote combined.
