The Great Gatsby
This past Christmas, I read the novel, The Great Gatsby, which was written by F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1925. This novel, despite its excesses, or perhaps due to them, eventually ended up becoming a “classic” within American literature. Its theme, set within the High Society of New York City during “The Roaring Twenties,” examines and comments upon that period’s unequal social differences, as well as their members vastly different lifestyles. The author mixes violence and love, infidelities and friendship, luxury and poverty, with the purpose of transferring us to the fictional places of West and East Egg, in front of Long Island, during a suffocating and scorching summer.
The main protagonists of this story are Jay Gatsby, an eccentric millionaire, and Daisy, a depressed and bored young wife who lives on the other side of the bay, along with her rude husband, Tom. Jay and Daisy had been lovers before the First World War cruelly separated them. A third person, Nick Carraway, a young graduate, who lives in a modest, rented house next door to the magnificent Gatsby mansion, tells the narrative to us. He gives us a bird’s eye view of the magnificent, if not astonishing parties that Gatsby gives every Saturday night, as well as introducing us to other characters, yet, always with a somewhat biased point of view, as eventually, due to their shared backgrounds, he and Gatsby turn into the best of friends. At its end, somewhat unsurprisingly, tragedy strikes, affecting everyone in one form or another, while shattering Nick’s illusions of the life, and the place, that he had aspired to reach.*
Hi, Legat. Good job! Whatever changes I made were to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears, to clarify your thoughts, and for ease of reading. My sincerest apologies if I have misinterpreted. I hope that this helps you, Jonathan.
*While not incorrect, the preference is for titles to be italicized instead. Given that your post ended somewhat abruptly, without any sort of resolution, I took the liberty of adding one. While it is a nice review, you could have easily added another paragraph telling us how you felt about it. Regardless of whether we are familiar with the book or not, simply knowing what your impressions about it are, might have interested us even more. (*-^)

I only watched the film and I don't like Daisy at all!She is so shallow and peacockish. The actress is also not pretty enough to me. I can't understand the story!
