Young Adult ELI Readers 5/C1: The Great Gatsby+CD

Autor: Francis Scott Fitzgerald

Žánr: Cizojazyčná literatura > English literature > Fiction and Literature > Contemporary Fiction

?Gatsby?? asked Daisy urgently.  ?What Gatsby?? Could it be the same young army lieutenant whom Daisy Fay met five years ago ? and who owns a sumptuous house on Long Island, where New York society enjoys the best parties on offer? Is it just coincidence that Gatsby lives across the bay from Daisy ? now married to wealthy polo-player Tom Buchanan? As one man?s mysterious dream moves towards its ultimately tragic conclusion, Midwesterner Nick Carraway is drawn into the dark world of Gatsby?s past and present ? a world of hidden frustrations and superficial relationships which perfectly illustrates the ?careless and confused? nature of America?s Jazz Age.
