  • Historical overview of 1920s New York society and Prohibition

About the book:
F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby follows narrator Nick Carraway as he’s drawn into the glittering orbit of Jay Gatsby—an enigmatic millionaire obsessed with recovering a lost love. Across East Egg and West Egg, lavish parties and ash-gray valleys, Fitzgerald exposes the fault lines of class, desire, and the myth of the American Dream. This Bear Classics edition frames the novel for contemporary listeners without altering Fitzgerald’s original text.

Edition notes:
