When done just right, reading about a character's pursuit of love is a favorite ingredient in some of the most beloved tales. Generally, we enjoy seeing passionate characters going after something they want. It can really get us going when what they want is seemingly unattainable. Characters in love certainly can go to extremes in their pursuits for the desired companion. We enjoy seeing how far they will go and whether or not they win the love they seek. In the end, are we satisfied if the love is ultimately unrequited? Or must we get our happy ending and see the lovesick character get what he wants?

Reviews
Having reread this book for the first time in 20 years, I can
confirm that there's a reason that it's considered one of
the very best American novels. However, my reaction to
the story was different than when I first read it in high
school. I recall that back then I was hoping that Daisy and
Gatsby's love story would ultimately yield a happy ending.
Now, I found them both to be such shallow creatures that
they inspired no pity. While I considered the characters to
be emotionally stunted, that dooesn't mean I was not
impressed with Fitzergerald's skillful rendering. As in most
forms of art, in literature it is more difficult to accurately
and interestingly portray nothingness than to describe a

Daisy to be a remarkable emotional void, and Gatsby's
quest to pour all of his hopes and dreams into such a
shallow cauldron only confirmed his own vapidity. One
thing that hasn't changed in all these years is my
amazement at Fitzgerald's ability to set a scene. His
descriptive passages are truly poetic, and his command of
word choice in unparalleled. All this made for a stimulating
and delightful read.

I have always looked forward to reading the classic book
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. When I finally had
time to read it, I wasn't disappointed. The Great Gatsby,
written in 1925, is a fictional tale that takes place during
the American Jazz Age. The story is set in the eastern U.S.
and follows the journey of a young man named Nick. The
book trails Nick from his home in the West to his new life
in West Egg, New York. Nick becomes involved in the
social scene is West Egg, which is mainly centered on the
weekly extravagant parties thrown by the incredibly
wealthy and strangely mysterious Jay Gatsby. As the book
progresses, Gatsby's past is slowly unraveled. Nick
witnesses Gatsby's gradual admittance of his significant
secret. He discovers that Gatsby is deeply in love with
Daisy Buchanan, a beautiful socialite, trapped in a
miserable marriage to an unfaithful husband. Though Nick
does not want to be involved in any way with the illicit
love affair between Daisy and Gatsby, he is gradually takes
a larger part in Gatsby and Daisy's dangerous romance.
When Jay and Daisy decide to declare their love to one
another, it leaves Gatsby in an unforgettable and risky
situation that changes the lives of all involved. The Great

4. Gatsby was one of the most interesting books that I have
ever read. It included a beautiful love story, danger,
suspense, tales of true devotion and friendship, and a
wonderful, thought-provoking commentary on the society
in post-World War I America, a time of excess and
confusion. I have learned several lessons from the novel,
whether they are about loyalty or remaining true to
oneself. I would recommend this book to anyone above the
age of thirteen because of some parts of the novel that
might be difficult to grasp. The Great Gatsby is a truly
wonderful book, and sure to be enjoyed by
many for many years to come.
