Subject Week: “The Great Gatsby” by F. Scott Fitzgerald”

The Great Gatsby, novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, published in 1925 by Charles Scribner’s Sons. Set in Jazz Age New York, it tells the story of Jay Gatsby, a self-made millionaire, and his pursuit of Daisy Buchanan, a wealthy young woman whom he loved in his youth.

Commercially unsuccessful when it was first published, The Great Gatsby—which was Fitzgerald’s third novel—is now considered a classic of American fiction and has often been called the Great American Novel.
