The pinnacle of the greatest binge in US history, which Francis Scott Fitzgerald called the "Jazz Age" and which he contributed heavily to with many private improvisations and "lost generation" sentiments, delivers a love story from a better society. The self-made man Jay Gatz, known as the Great Gatsby, and the beautiful Daisy Buchanan penetrated these spheres in their own way during the Prohibition era, and thus cope with the new lifestyle and the burden of American "innocence". The discordance of their ideas is the leitmotif of the novel, which examines the romantic ideal of the beguiling "green light" - that "crazy, exciting future that recedes before us year after year" - and finally mercilessly sacrifices it on the altar of the myth of eternal love. We present Fitzgerald's impressive treatment of the interwar form of the American dream in a new, modern translation.
