The Great Gatsby
- Wordsworth Editions Ltd 1993

Generally considered to be F. Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel, The Great Gatsby is a consummate summary of the 'roaring twenties' and a divastating expose of the 'jazz age'. Through the narration of Nick Carraway the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions which lined the long island shore of the american sea board in the 1920s, to encounter Nick's cousin Daisy, Jay Gatsby and the dark mystery which surrounds him.
