The Great Gatsby
Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate-a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period-which reveals a hero like no other-one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts.
"There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life...It was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again."
It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous entertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan-a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance i n a heedless universe.
It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism.
As befits such a magnificent work of literature, Classics Made Easy® spent over 1,000 hours researching over 340 hard to understand words and phrases, as well as the 75 locations mentioned throughout the book-so you don't have to.
You now hold in your hands the most comprehensible edition of The Great Gatsby ever printed.
