When F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote The Great Gatsby in the early 1920s, the American Dream was already on the skids. Originally based on the idea that the pursuit of happiness involves not only material success, but moral and spiritual growth, the dream had, by Fitzgerald's time, become increasingly focused on money and pleasure - a phenomenon with which the high-living writer was all too familiar.

Yet he lacks the one thing he wants most: the love of Daisy Buchanan, a woman who represents a past he cannot release. Set amid the glittering chaos of the Roaring Twenties, The Great Gatsby is F. Scott Fitzgerald’s masterpiece of ambition, obsession, class, and disillusionment.
