The Great Gatsby F. Scott Fitzgerald

The Great Gatsby F. Scott Fitzgerald, 170 pages.



We read this American classic for our book discussion in December, but since I didn't quite finish it until after the January 1 I get to count all 170 pages this year.
I felt as though I knew the story well, having culturally absorbed it over the decades. It turns out that I knew nothing of Gatsby's story, or his motives, or what happened to him after the accident. It was a good book, definitely of its time; not necessarily dated, but showing the attitudes of America after the Great War. It left me wanting to read more of Fitzgerald's work.
