An absolute American classic and a must read. One of the best lines in the book is when someone notes, "The rich are different"; and indeed Fitzgerald captures this beautifully in his depiction of Gatsby and other characters, all set against the Jazz Age.

I know it's a classic, but I can't see why.

A great book about a man who pretends to be greater than he is from the point of view of the new guy in town.

NOTE: IF YOU ORDER THIS COPY I EXPECT A BOOKCREDIT:
A classic title in great demand by pbswappers so I hate to just pitch it if someone can use a well-read copy with many notes and underlining. Someone has used this copy to pass a class and it may be just right for a student who won't mind the extra input. Lots of wear but solid and has at least one more read in it. Thanks!
