About this listen
Elegant, enigmatic Jay Gatsby yearns for his old love, the beautiful Daisy. But she is married to the insensitive if hugely successful Tom Buchanan, who won’t let her go despite having a mistress himself. In their wealthy haven, these beguiling lives are brought together by the innocent and entranced narrator, Nick – until their decadent deceits spill into violence and tragedy. Part morality tale, part fairy tale, The Great Gatsby is the consummate novel of the Jazz Age. Its tenderness and poetry make it one of the great works of the 20th century.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Brilliant
I thought this may be hard going. I was wrong. Voices were great story is sad in places. Money doesn't bring happiness. Loved it!

The Greatest of the Great?
What did you like most about The Great Gatsby?
Beautifully written. A multi-layered masterpiece with a depth that rewards multiple re-readings.
What did you like best about this story?
There is little extraneous fluff. Fitzgerald avoided padding and produced a clear and concise story.
Any additional comments?
Arguably the greatest novel of the 20th Century and has very few competitors from other centuries for the title of greatest novel of all time.

pure classic
A classic of american novel, a pure joy! The word's and voice combine to take you back to the 1920's and into a world that is not quite what it seems.

An American classic
At last I got this book! Tried to read it before, seen the film but hearing it read in the proper accent worked. So insightful, so sad.
