大亨小傳
這是 F. Scott Fitzgerald 的 20 世紀文學傑作，他是爵士樂時代（他創造的術語）的傑出編年史家。
這部經典作品概括了1920 年代「爵士樂時代」的頹廢和放縱，講述了謙遜的尼克·卡拉威(Nick Carraway) 追尋美國夢的故事，這使他找到了傑伊·蓋茨比(Jay Gatsby)的家門口，後者是一位神秘的百萬富翁，以其奢華的派對和不朽的精神而聞名。尼克帶著嫉妒和沮喪的心情觀察著蓋茲比和他在長島西埃格鎮的華麗生活，而蓋茲比則嚮往黛西和東埃格海峽上閃閃發光的一切。結果是一部圍繞著富人生活的戲劇和欺騙的編年史，這鞏固了菲茨傑拉爾作為他這一代人的代言人的聲譽。
A masterpiece of 20th century literature from F. Scott Fitzgerald, the preeminent chronicler of the Jazz Age--a term he coined.
This classic work encapsulating the decadence and excess of the 1920s "Jazz Age" follows the unassuming Nick Carraway on his search for the American Dream, which leads him to the doorstep of Jay Gatsby, an enigmatic millionaire known for both his lavish parties and his undying love for Nick's cousin, the married Daisy Buchanan. With a mixture of envy and dismay, Nick observes Gatsby and his flamboyant life in the Long Island town of West Egg, while Gatsby yearns for Daisy and all that shimmers across the Sound in East Egg. The result is a chronicle of the drama and deceit that swirl around the lives of the wealthy, which cemented Fitzgerals's reputation as the voice of his generation.
