'A classic, perhaps the supreme American novel' Sunday Times, Books of the Century 'It was one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life' Jay Gatsby is the man who has everything. But one thing will always be out of his reach ... Everybody who is anybody is seen at his glittering parties. Day and night his Long Island mansion buzzes with bright young things drinking, dancing and debating his mysterious character. For Gatsby - young, handsome, fabulously rich - always seems alone in the crowd, watching and waiting, though no one knows what for. Beneath the shimmering surface of his life he is hiding a secret: a silent longing that can never be fulfilled. And soon this destructive obsession will force his world to unravel.

  1. Utmärkt semesterlitteratur
    Jan Clewestam, 5 augusti 2017

    Intressant skildring av en klassiskt amerikansk överklass efter andra världskriget: Lättsamt egoistiskt liv med personliga problem. Man kan inte undgå att reflektera på om inte skildringen återspeglar med vissa anpassningar dagens samhällen både i USA och Sverige.
