When Nick Carraway arrives in West Egg, he expects a quiet summer away from the noise of the city. But he quickly finds himself caught in the magnetic orbit of his enigmatic neighbor, Jay Gatsby—a man whose lavish parties pulse with glamour and mystery. Beneath the glittering surface lies a story of obsession and heartbreak, one that pulls Nick deeper into a world where love and ambition collide.
At the center of it all is Daisy Buchanan, whose beauty and charm conceal complicated loyalties, and Tom Buchanan, whose power and pride threaten to unravel everything. Alongside them is Jordan Baker, a golfer whose own secrets add to the tangled web. As Nick watches their lives unfold, he comes to understand the price of chasing dreams that refuse to fade, even when the cost is everything.
This is a haunting tale of longing and illusion, capturing the fierce pulse of an era and the fragility of hope. It is The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
