New York 1922. Auf seinem Anwesen in Long Island gibt Jay Gatsby sagenhafte Feste. Er hofft, mit seinem neuerworbenen Reichtum, mit Swing und Champagner seine verlorene Liebe zurückzugewinnen. Zu spät merkt er, dass er sich von einer romantischen Illusion hat verführen lassen.

Work Description
Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate – a marvelous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period – which reveals a hero like no other – one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts.
"There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life.... It was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again."
It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous entertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan – a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe.
It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism.
